So as I see it, with one core, I am forced to close all other programs while I play to avoid conflicting issues, but by having a second core, you could in theory keep a program open like your AV.

I'm no expert either, but I belive that dual-core processors don't work that way! |
Well maybe we can get an expert to help us out a bit.
