Hey,

So I was wondering... I'm running a dual core @1.6 ghz each. Can I merge them on windows? Make it 3.1 ghz?

I heard you can do this on linux but not on windows. Someone please carify.
 
So then if I'm running a program it doesn't skip to only one CPU it distributes it's weight evenly.

Like when I play something like say TF2... one processor is tripping out while the other is un-used.

Maybe I'm just really out of it and programs already do that.
 
my heads bout to explode from this talk right now, i shouldve listened to the title An never entered
 
OH I GETZ IT NAWH.

It runs as two separate processors @1.6 ghz each. Which makes it available for multi-threading.

So one of them can take half the processing load and the other can take the other half... right?

Yup, you're right, they can split the processor load. Also, there's an option in TF2 under advanced video settings called "multicore rendering," turn it on and you'll get much better performance, because both cores will be utillized.
 
this thread motivated me to tell the girl im texting im going to bed and now im gonna go to sleep because i have a headache.
