I built Amy a graphics computer recently. she is running Adobe suite
(Photoshop, Illustrator, Pagemaker etc. ) and a lot of other graphics
related software. He CPU is an AMD 64 4200 x 2 (2 x 2100 cores). She's
jonesin for a little more horsepower and so last night Ibought myself an
Opteron 185 for my Cubase rig and I was going to replace her 4200 dual core
with the 4800 dual core I'm currently running in my cubase rig. this will
give her two 2400 cores. I've also got an AMD 64 3700 single core CPU here.
She's usually working with one app at a time. I'm just wondering if the
single core CPU wouldn't offer her more processing power under these
circumstances and actually be a better processor for her needs.

I'm going to do some Googling on this but if anyone has any insight into
this situation, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Deej
