Upgrading CPU?

Post by Hangee_77 »

Hi,
I am planning to upgrade my CPU from Intel P4/3.0GHz/533FSB into the P4 Extreme Edition 3.4GHz. (cause they are getting cheap nowadays)
My concerns here are:
1. Do I need to reinstall my windows again after the CPU replacement?
2. Would it be a problem with my music hardware & software that require registration & authorization? Ex: UAD-1, Creamware cards, USB dongle synchrosoft licensed applications, etc
3. any other……

Are all the hassle worth the performance different?

Thanks.

hc.

I bet you wouldn't even notice the difference... :D
imho it's not even an option for a cheapo system, considering the superior caches and less heat problems of the DualCores

cheers, Tom
