My quadcore installed Windows XP in 6 minutes.

[Kard63]

I didn't know the data could be read from the cd that fast... Quadcore is the shit!

im so jealous

[StuBradley]

Yeah...I can rip a dvd in about 7 minutes. Not if its compressed though. What processor do you have? It sounds nice.

I thought the harddrive was the bottleneck

[imafuckingaussie]

Fuck, I must have mental issues, I thought the post said
"My grandpa installed xp in 6 minutes"
LMAO, unless someone posted that one above, my mind must be stuffed!!!

[Fizzgig]

That's pretty amazing!

That's some mad shit there!

Like someone else said, I thought the harddrive would have been a bottle neck. Good to know.

[Kard63]

The hard drive is a 10,000 rpm Raptor, not a normal 7,200 rpm drive. So you both might right.

[NoWhErE]

Wow, Notepad must open damn fast on that computer!

I just made my own external hard drive with a raptor sata drive, its pretty damn fast...

lol that happens to me sometimes

[V_RocKs]

It isn't just the Quad core... it is also the higher frontside bus and SATA connection for IDE...

[lorine]

That is fast. Very fast indeed ! What about Vista ? How long does it take to install Vista ? . I`m curious !

[datatank]

What is better a quad core or two dual cores?

[Jim_Gunn]

I haven't read much about newer computer processors, but quadcore sounds neat. I might need one of these for video encoding.

[fuzzylogic]

nice
i am used to it taking about 20min i think
got a weblink for the box?
price?

[madawgz]

wow thats awesome

[chaze]

Damn that is sweat!

[studiocritic]

I just built a new computer awhile ago.. with 2 of those 10k raptors. wd1500adfd's

[Catalyst]

fuck.. i guess it is time to build a new computer for me

[uno]

Seriously Rich, I feel so behind.

[Masterchief]

Yah, the quad cores are pretty awesome. Just built an 8 core system and it's just amazingly fast

[martinsc]

yup, quadcore and raptors are great

[buddyjuf]

I just installed a core 2 duo on mine

and I'm jealous

[ungratefulninja]

Recently using a Core2Duo and an SATA2 drive it definately took more than 6 minutes. My motherboard is quad compatible, so maybe in a few months..

[calibra]

Six minutes to install XP sounds pretty fantastic to me.

[Vitasoy]

Sounds like a bad ass machine

[Jakke PNG]

Too bad the quadcore wasn't available in October when I ordered my computer. My dual-dualcore xeon has as many processors as one of those beauties (and I bet my machine is a LOT LOT LOT noisier ;))

[leming]

Incredible results!

nice processor, but 2 expensive

[Bex]

I think i need a dual quad core

[wyldworx]

I cant wait to get a dual core, fuck, that is unbelievable!

[fetishblog]

I call bullshit, but whatever.

[JP-pornshooter]
