A basic Quad core runs on the principles that says all the cores has to work together.Like Intel’s Qaud architecture it has 2 di processors running in synchronization which solves the purpose if any of the bi fails.This motherboard of AMD is not a true quad.It has 2 di processors running together to give the same effect.

This forum is must for people like me. Regards lolly15

There are a lot of 32-bit operating system that supports a lot of hearts out there. I just do not have Windows. So little latitude OS has nothing to do with the ability to support multicore.

yes we are curious to know what really is the difference between the quad core and other cores how does the end user benefit from all this
