Was just wondering about this a few minutes ago in another thread lol. I wonder if it also benefits us poor quad core bulldozer users. Guess I'll install anyway, just in case.

Why not post this in the news section?

I'll have to make sure I remember to install these for the lady's rig. Doubt it'll make much of a difference, but as stated in the release--free performance is free performance.

 

[bmgjet]

Had to install all the other recommended updates from windows updater to get past the "not applicable" error.

 

[Boomstick68]

Will give it a try.
