I'm running a Pentium D 820 right now, and haven't really stressed it alot. Plan on gaming for a bit on it soon.

Just wondering if there are any patches or w/e I have to download to make sure everything detects, utilizes, or w/e issues XP has with Dual Core CPUs. Have heard alot of issues with AMDs X2s, but not much on Pentium Ds (less people use them I guess who visit the forums)

Anyone know of anythign to be concerned about?
 
I have a 920 and so far I haven't experienced anything for the worse. The main programs that I run are Visual Studio 2003 and a little bit of Photoshop CS. The only game I really play is America's Army. And sometimes a little Rome: Total War. No issues so far, for me anyways. Hope this helps.

i havent heard of any problems with the smithfields or presslers. you should be good to go game =D. Maybe get speedfan or something n watch temps if you're overclocking, but other than that, i guess it's all good ;)
