ok back on subject. what is the advantage of the venice core? does it run cooler? i have NEVER heard of that until an hour after i ordered my newcastle core(go figure)

 

[C0RR0SIVE]

hehe, i have newcastle to, Anyways its supposed to be the coolest core out now......

 

[PoisonPorkchop]

how many degrees cooler are we talking?

temps dont really matter to me unless there above 60 c. a cpus life expectancy is 10 years, and im sure that in ten years youll be able to get a cpu that 5x times better than the one you have now for like 100 bucks. bottom line is ill never keep a cpu for 10 years

you forgot to include that longhorn is going to be 64-bit and have a 3D interface! meaning that windows is going to be in 3d! imagine angling windows so that you can still read them, but also make room for others. MaximumPC had an awsome article on it. it really is going to be an amazing OS. hell for your hardware though.

dam that was one long argument and then they just start talking like friends?????

 

[PoisonPorkchop]

its gonna be hard for MY hardware to handle? i think not! my argument was not with charles_scott in particular and the argument was dropped.

switch fx will you be able to do that? it sounds cool but it will be hard for people to learn the controls for that with all the advanced-user oriented features. my parents asked me where the start button was so......
