    Re: How many CPU cores will ur next PC have?

    My next will be 8 cores. Why? Because it's an upgrades, so it must worths it.

    1 core -> 2 cores -> 4 cores -> 8 cores. Right?

    Re: How many CPU cores will ur next PC have?

    my next will prolly just be 4 as i'm quad right now and come nowhere close to max load so don't see the need to upgrade

    but then again i never saw a reason to jump from dual to quad so who knowsHmm

    Re: How many CPU cores will ur next PC have?

    Thanks for GmsCool adding the poll. Yes

    Me? my present pc goes with quad cores, so my next one will probably be 8 cores. Hah...it's an upgrade indeed...Groovy

    ps: up to now, 8 cores rank first. is it the final result?! Huh?  kk, go ahead and cast ur vote. XD

    I'd like to think and hope that through shrinkage and new archutectural advances we'll never need anything over 5ghz. bigger nu,bers shouldn't always mean better performance.
