i have a q6600 quad core cpu that i would like a to trade for a higher clocked dual core. the cpu is being used in my htpc with xp so i can't really use the extra horsepower of the quad core the dual core would run a little cooler and quieter making it perfect for a htpc. looking for an even trade.

I thought anything that had to do with video ran faster on quad core?

Very little software is written well enough to take advantage of more than 2 cores.

No, this^ guy would send you something worth less than half as much and then call you a liar and keep your money when you tell him what he sent you. Ask me how I know.
