there is absolutely no need to upgrade a Q6600 right now. it's overkill for any game. your graphics card sucks bad. that's your pc's weakness. get a gtx 260 or radeon 4870
anyone that buys a DX11 card the first year they come out is a noob. you pay a premium to have it early when like 2 games use DX11. smart ppl wait a year for the price to come down and more games to come out.
Also if your using Vista/Windows 7 then while your in MSCONFIG then under Boot -> advanced options you can tell windows to use more than one cpu core while booting up...as it only uses 1 core by default.

that's not really true. it uses multiple by default. that setting is for troubleshooting. a lot of people are confused by that setting. google it.
if the old drive used to be your C: drive and you put that in a new computer as a different drive letter like E:.......then the paths to files/registry info are gonna be all mixed up. it wouldn't be a problem for individual files like a .mp3 file......but installed programs are gonna be confused
[QUOTE="Daytona_178"] Yeah, its funny how people call Vista a heap of **** and then called Windows 7 the best thing since sliced bread when they are basically the same thing. Now i understand Vista was unstable when it was first released but thats all fixed now days.Sparticus247
I actually consider Microsoft extremely greedy and somewhat dishonest for selling Windows 7 as a full-price "new" OS. They could easily have released all the minor changes as an update for Vista with a small price tag.
it's all about the marketing my friends. Visat 64 bit was bad when it first came out, but not because the OS was garbage, but there was no real support. By service pack 1, and for sure pack 2, it became a solid OS.....only problem was that it got that bad rep and it stayed. MS had to do something to get back in the game, so they re-released Visata with some Optimizations and vwala! Success! Goog job marketing department
i went from 8800GT to GTX260.... i'll keep the GTX260 for about a year after the new nvidia cards come out..because they should be more affordable then
keep in mind, my receiver is a Sony that supports that Bravia thing....so i was thinking of leaning towards a Sony...but i'm willing to get something else if it's very good.
