  1. grammar sucks - wait until you try and try and run ATI cards...everyone I have had so far as caused me problems.

     

    Since Opty won't spill the beans I'll let you in on the secret so you can catch him. Register your PCmark04 and simply run Grammar Check first by itself (its under CPU tests) and then run the regular System Suite and it should work.

     

    Or you could use a program that changes your affinity based on time clock. You would have to time it to get it to run in sync with the Grammar check test and it would automatically switch the affinity between single and dual core for you. Haven't tested to see if this is actually practical though.

     

    Good luck!

  2. Does the Vision sticker meant that the technology is actually Vision?

     

    Don't believe it does, but it makes for a great deal of confusion especially since even googling which chips are AMD Vision turns up almost nothing. Finally found this article which coincided with the HWBOT hardware listings.

     

    http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/display/20110210094136_AMD_May_Can_Microprocessor_Brand_Names_Document.html

     

    Cpu-world.com doesn't give any listing for Vision but does count the E-series they do have listed as K10.

     

    So I just left it as I have no idea and wouldn't pursue benching it unless I could find one of the chips listed in the Hardware section.

  3. Acer Aspire 5551G

     

    AMD Vision ?

     

    This is why I was getting confused because I have 3 different ACER laptops at work that all have AMD Vision stickers on them. None of them carry chips that are currently in the Hardware Library as AMD Vision despite the sticker. One is the same as you the Tri-Core 830. After some research I decided what they actually meant was the E-series of newer chips released by AMD. Especially since I see they put the Vision sticker on desktops as well, some that carry processors like Athlon dual (x2 250) and tri cores.
