I'm looking to buy a new pc. I can afford a high end 3.2 core2duo, or a highish 2.6/2.8 quadcore intel
Which should I buy?
I do a LOT of multitasking; usually have at least 6 windows open: an average screen, for me has:
Dreamweaver
Fireworks
A Pdf or two
Two windows of FireFox, each with 6 tabs
Photoshop or Indesign
A few file manager windows
Foobar 2000 (a media player, playing music)
MSN
and Outlook.
And that's normal - sometimes its more.
What should I get then? Is quadcore going to sort my life. The thing is, its not like im physically using each other these programs all the time. I dont have 3 programs all rendering at once; but they are open, and will probably be doing background processes, and the like.
Also, is it worth going for 1050mhz ram, rather than 800mhz?
Looking forwards to your replies!
Bless,
Chris
