    AMD X2 Server CPU Question

    At work our MySQL server is currently on a AMD 64 4000+. Would going to a X2 4600+ 512kb cache be a good idea? I have read that the cache size is not as important but i'm not sure about a smaller cache with MySQL? Thanks!

    Line Across LCD ?

    I have a ViewSonic VA1912wb and there is a horizontal line across the display. It is just a bit lighter. It is right about eye level and is very annoying. This monitor was bought at the end of December. Why would this line have appeared? I am using analog input. Thanks for any advice!!
