Generic problem for all PC Desktops
Really disappointed with dual core
By duracellman on Oct 09, 2007
ASUS P5B-V motherboard, Intel E6600 dual core duo cpu & 4Gb kingston memory. Maxtor 320Gb SATA hard drive.Win XP Pro,& AVG software.
This machine (loaded 4 times now) is much slower than my old Pentium 4 3,2Ghz ASUS Terminator T2.
It has identical software loaded but just lags when opening Outlook, my computer, internet etc. Even my Celeron 1.7 lappy is quicker. I have checked the cpu with passmark. Also done a full load check on the system. All passes ok. I reckon i should go & buy a Pentium 2 3.8 cpu. Can you recommend the correct model number that will fit the LGA 775 socket & is compatable with the G965 express chipset on the ASUS P5B-V. I am really getting depressed.

- Many thanks to GAUMZEE. I am not wildly experienced at pc's so you may need to explain some details. My C: drive is the 320Gbyte SATA & I keep all my media etc on a separate 320 Gbyte hard drive. So, I have only program files on the C drive.Question;
1) As I use a separate hard drive for my files, I take it I don't need to partition the 80Gbyte HD? simply reload all my programs?
2) You said 'Make this primary'. Does yout mean just make this the system 'C' drive?
3) I don't have a clue how to increase the virtual memory size of my system?
Alternatively:
4) If I took the Single core Pentium 4 route, could I fit a 3.6 or even 3.8Ghz CPU?
5) When I check these for features, they never mention compatability with G965 express chipsets. Are they o.k.
regards,
Duracellman

-Gautam,
thankyou again. I'm off to purchase an 80Gbyte hard drive at the weekend and will do all you recommend. I will get back to you soon, hopefully with a success story.

You can buy a 3.02 pentium 4 processor and need not change any thing else.
On the other hand try changing your hard disk with a one with smaller capacity such as 80 GB make it primary with the windows partition not exceeding 15 GB . Make this drive (80 GB )primary and other one secondary.Increase the virtual memory size of your system and for sure you wont need to buy any thing or be depressed anymore.

-HI,
1. You Have to Partition the 80 GB drive with first patition not exceeding 15 Gb.That is The C: drive and then load the programs.
2. Yes By making it a primary drive you have to use it as primary master. Check for Jumper settings if Ide drive and if Using Sata drive Plug it on Sata 0 port and install operating system on it.
3.For Increasing Virtual Memory Size right click the my computer Icon , Click Advanced Tab, In performance option click Settings then click advance. Below that in virtual memory tab click change. Increase the size as permissable by the system around 1800 - 5000 .
4.Yes you can always use Single core processors with the mother board model 965.
Good luck.
