Now I set up my new core 2 duo processor thats a 2.4 ghz with 4 mb of l2 cache. It seems to run alittle worse than my old cpu which was a pent 4 3.4 ghz. I know that windows runs one core and games tend to run the other but my duo doesnt seem to keep up with my pent 4. Is there something wrong with the processor or am I crazy? Mind you I just got my update on BIOS so the BIOS recognizes the cpu. Can anyone help me on this issue?
