No. I'm running a FX60 and 4400+, both socket 939 with DDR3200 ram. (2GBs in each machine)

I'll have an AM2 4200+ up and running tomorrow or Sunday. I'll be putting a Phenom in the AM2 system when the price is right. I've got about $150 in it at this point.

So I will not be slowing down anytime soon. I welcome the competition though.

I found a processor to upgrade to for my laptop but no one has it in stock!

http://www.compsource.com/ttechnote.asp?part_no=TMDTL62HAX5CT&vid=34&src=F

If for some reason I do find it, will I have to upgrade my bios since I'll be going from a single core to a dual core?

If you have have a socket 754 Turion which I suspect you do you cannot install a socket S1 Turion X2 since they are not pin compatible. Do you have DDR or DDR2 RAM?

Thanks Matt, Will there be any adjustments needed to bios ect or just plug and play?

You might want to update to the latest BIOS from the manufacturer's web site, but the BIOS for any of the ATI X1100 chipsets in theory *should* already have dual core support, although there are no guarantees that any of the BIOSes will support the dual core.

Maybe we should start a new thread for this:

Found it and saved it, but thanks. I knew it was there, just had to look for it. I'm hoping the dual core ver. of CPU and 4gb of ram will help w/folding as well as overall perfomance.

As long as you have the best RAM your motherboard can handle and an 64-bit OS then you should be well set for folding an almost anything else you throw at it. Sounds sweet!

Thanks,not bad for a laptop, that was another question. I'm runing Vista Ult 32bit but can install 64 w/o any prob. (I think) I bought retail Box that came w/both discs. Does 64bit run better?
