That's the idea.
Thamar: Wouldn't that be throwing away good money? Since AMD's dual core's aren't really that competitive compared to Intel's?
Also, it's not supposed to be used at home. It's for the office anyway.
So it's actually an investment, but the reason why I decided to go for one PC with 4 cores rather than 2 dual-core pc's is due to my curiousity.
Shinigami: The macpro's board lets you hook up quite a lot of videocards IIRC. I need to check to be sure.
Again, the purpose of this isn't to test how much the hardware will affect one application; rather, it's a test to see how much improvement there will be with regards to multitasking.
