I just built my computer, and it has the specs listed in my sig.
I have a few questions, well, maybe a lot, so bear with me.
1) I have a dual core processor, what should I do for best performance? I have all the processes in task manager set to CPU 0 and CPU 1 for affinity, should I select just one?
2) Are there any programs that are good for burning in my comp, or testing my cpu and ram, etc, for errors?
3) I have been playing GW, and various other games, once Firefox crashed on me, and once Guild Wars did. Now, when Guild Wars crashed an internet pop up from their support appeared which said it could be due to my computer overheating, or ram issues. I went back to where I was when it crashed, and I checked my temps with a program called Asus Probe, it came on my Asus support CD. It tells me my CP temp idle is around 32, and my Motherboard temp idle is around 35 or 37. When open up the game, CPU goes to 39, and motherboard to 48. The CPU has gone as high as 41. Is this bad, good, ugly?
4) I open up task manager, and I am running Guild Wars. It says my page file usage is around 530mb, and my CPU usage is around 52%. Is this good, bad, or ugly?
5) Any updates for nvidia or anything that make games run better with dual core, or any tips for setting affinity, etc?
