CPU not being completly utilized

[Ned_Flanders]

Yeah, I heard that all the Universities in the UK only operate 64 bit programs now, and need to use cool and quiet - honest. Anything but a Athlon64 could cause you to lose marks or even cause you to <i>fail</i> your course!

:lol:

[endyen]

Either should be fine. Use 4 & 2, because they are closer to the chip.

 

[theholylancer]
