Hi all

there was this guy who brough me a machine to fix an original Hp pavilion, and turns out that the hdd of 512gb was damage ,and at this moment the guy doesn't have money to buy a new one, and he ask me to hold the machine for a while..

The thing while we were talking ,and then he claim that the machine doesn't even have a good prossesor I already cleaned the fan cooler and clean the CPU and saw a E4500 ,it seems that this guy never heard of the word  Core Duo and less Quad,  So I ask him  :evil  would you rather a Pentium 4 which he has heard and think its the best and said to me ,yes :evil

Put into his machine and place the core duo into mine :evil ..

My point is Due to a lot of complaining in FSX section about core prosesors , but so far the FSX performance has increase very good, the only thing I know Is this procesor Is much expencive than a P4,is there something I should know before I close the deal? ..

Need some advise or comments please

Thanks

It could be the applications on your friends computer aren't able to take advantage of both cores.
