Re: you have a good point, why would Intel need to run modified for Conroe driver on AMD system ATI recently introduced dual-core support for their video card drivers. It might need to check the CPU ID to determine whether to optimize for dual-core mode and would need to be updated for Conroe support. Or it could have been a compatibility issue with the motherboard/chipset/BIOS. the other thing is that bios is not updated for AMD as per screen message "AMD processor model unknown" Because the FX-60 was overclocked to 2.8GHz to better match what Athlon 64 X2 will perform like at the Conroe launch. I could not find any fx-60 benchmarks that would be consistent with intel's, can anyone confirm that? Message 22238354
