X2 3800 Again.....

[Josh123]

Ok guys, I know this has been talked about a lot
but I need some help with my exact system.

I have:
Asus A8N-SLI Prem.
AMD X2 3800 w/ Stock HSF
OCZ 3200 Platinum 2x1gig

Anyone mind helping me try getting
my system to run at the max.

I just came from a P4 3.0C so
I'm new to AMD overclocking. Not sure
if its the same but if anyone wants to
coach me through some of this stuff PM me.

does the x2 3800+ have 2 actual cores? if so how much is each core

 

[Ramax57]

The X-2 has 2 cores on the same die, making multitasking a breeze with it. Each core operates at 2.0 Ghz and each core has 512 KB of L2 Cache. I'm not sure if L2 Cache makes a big difference from 512 KB to 1 MB though.
