Ending this thread here. Got the hardware and put it together. The specs are in My Coputer and here's a breakdown: CPU - Intel Core i5 @...
Thanks for the assurance. Just yesterday installed Win7x64 on my i5. Detects all the frequencies and everything correctly as well as the 4GB. A...
when does it shut down? when the OS is loaded or while bootup? Maybe try to go into BIOS and sit there for a few minutes to see what happens....
Happy, HWF!
I know that they're supposedly x64, but I read somewhere that, for example, the i5 has "4 x86 cores". What does that mean? would it utilize less...

Hi! At last I am seriously considering of basically buying a new PC. Not entirely, though as I am on a budget here. First off, I have been...
Got the invite. Thanks!
I have always known that HWF's awesome :D I'd be happy to have a invite!
Nah, I still think that an OS should be rather local. More privacy, higher security, max performance, best control. If they would go and create...
