http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=58642i don't think a dual core processor will improve on gaming performence. instead try to get the processor to run as fast as possible.

1. Nobody actually runs liquid nitrogen cooled gaming machines, and there are already benchmarks of conroes at over 5Ghz Razz

2. A dual processor machine will improve MY gaming performance for several reasons:
* I can run FRAPS to record my gaming and not lose any FPS
* I use the firefox "showcase" plugin to display 4+ tiles browsers simultaneously on my second monitor (mostly work stuff). When they all refresh at once, I take a CPU hit and my games lag. With 2 procs I can assign showcase to the second proc and it won't affect my game.
3. I DO intend to run my processor as fast as possible, which is, as I explained, why I paid extra money for an overclock-friendly motherboard.
