I have two now and it's great, i have mIRC on the other monitor while i play games or model and stuff so i'm up-to-date with everything.


Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know of a way to make Windows maintain the windows on each screen as active? It sucks how it minimizes your full-screen application from the other monitor when you click on the other. I've got multiple monitors too, and I hate it how I can't play a game and chat on IRC simultaneously without the game being minimized every time the IRC windows is activated on the other monitor. With the crappy "alt-tab" features in many games nowaday, the game additionally ends up crashing after minimizing too. Sucks. With the amount of multimonitor setups out there, they ought to have fixed this already.


I use NVIDIAs software and a little of the windows stuff, when i run another windows on the "main" screen the other one is displayed as inactive (greyed out title bar etc).

duuude, absolute NO to the Pentium D. Even for the same price you can get an Athlon 64 X2, which is much better. That pretty much dumbs down your whole computer.


I'm not going for AMD, the processor you see is the processor i'm getting unless their is a really valid reason not to, not just any old statement like " AMD runs better and has more FSB space" or "Core 2 roxors" etc etc.

This one has 2mb L2 cache per core and 3.6ghz per core too, and like i said before, BIOS has to be updated to run Core 2 and i need a CPU to do that.
