It is interesting what they do with cores these days. I can say that multiple cores are great if you open several programs at the same time. Unganged RAM usage by AMD is a nice feature where it dedicates a stick of RAM per core. I did add another 4 gig of RAM to my computer for a total of 8. I can say I do not see a substantial increase in performance over just 4 gigs that I was running in single channel. But hey, it is there if needed. Having the ability to overclock your cores is a great feature for keeping a computer for a long time.
