please pardon some of my spelling in advance here.
her is my system
a8n-e
venice core 3200 stock cooling
asus 6200
500w psu
2 hdd 40gig 80gig
windows x64 pro
1gig memory dual channel
this is a warning thread for all amd users DO NO USE windows x64bit edition it is a total pile of ****. i have been using for years since service pack one (home) i just recently got new hardware because my mobo burnt up so far heres my complaints take em or leave em this just my finding sofar
ive had this os for about 2weeks after obtaining it 6months ago and was waiting for an upgrade to install this
i will go over my thoughts with this os compared to xp home
i downloaded all the drivers, and updates sofar from microsoft and various hardware distributors such as nvidia
1graphics: home-9
i had an old agp nvidia ti310 and it was never glitchy never glitched ever, not even in the hardest games i could play rome total war with out a singel frame jump
1grapics: x64 pro-6
i play rome total war with my new 256 6200 nvidia and all i have is random frame glitches in any game i play even in some cases my card jumps on low requirement games. also with some games i get the blue screen of death
2Proformance: home-8.5
this was pretty fast for me my processor was starting to die on me and i was overclocking it and it work a little bit over all very fast to my liking with my 3200
2Proformance: x64 pro-6
very fast start up thats the only pro of it but it soon has difficulty running the cpu jumps to 100% at random times i have random freeze times with multipul programs i am constantly restarting.
3features: home-8
basic internet and most programs work fine with windows
3features: x64 pro-6.5
exactly teh same as home just not so many programs are made for x64 so its harder to work around that fact
i gave xp home 25.5/30 since its a very good and well built os system
the x64bit pro edition i give a 18.5/30 it is a very poorly built os and is yet to bloom into what it should be and what my expectations are of it (not very high)
i would not recommend the x64 os to anyon at all stick with home or pro save yourself 80$ and keep the good working os's and yes microsoft isnt paying much attention to this os either because of vista maybe in a few years if it isnt forgotten about by microsoft then it will be fixxed a little better
