Tek-Almighty August 21, 2006 Share Tek-Almighty Member August 21, 2006 Since getting my 4800+ (haven't installed yet) I keep reading about performance issues with XP and dual-core procs. I don't know anyone (outside of forums) that has dual-core, so I can't ask them...So I am wondering about what kind of performance issues I would notice IF I needed to use the hotfix to increase my duallie's performance or fix any problems. Anyone used it with XP and their dual-core? Was it hard to install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaM2 August 28, 2006 Share akaM2 Member August 28, 2006 do i need to run this with my conroe? I am getting 170 solid fps with everything on high, so i dunno how much better it could get. Im guessing not because it is a AMD hotfix, oh well. Intel>AMD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
