is duo core 2 processor a 64bit processor?
I know the amd turion 64 X 2 is a 64 bit processor...
Microsoft states that new Vista performs best with 64 bit architecture...So....If duo core 2 is not 64 bit, then I guess turion 64 is the best way to go for windows buyers...

I'm looking for a new power supply for my HP computer to power a hungry graphics card such as the Nvidia 7950GX2. On Nvidia's page, they recommend:

"The minimum recommended power supply for a single GeForce 7950 GX2 is 400W (with 12V current rating of 27A)."

The 500w power supply that I am looking at has dual 12v rails - one 12v rail has 17amps, the other has 19amps. Here are the specs:
"+3.3V@32A, +5V@35A, +12V1@17A, +12V2@19A, -12V@0.3A, +5VSB@2A" from http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103937#spec

When a graphics card requires 27amps from the 12v rail, does the amperage all need to be on ONE rail? Or is it ok to combine the total amperage of multiple rails (19amp + 17amp = 36 amp 12v rail)?

Thank you in advance for any help :)

Hi, has anyone used this tablet(XP-Pen 8060b) before? I'm asking here because I can't find much information about this product in English. As in accuracy, etc. Or if not, just some information about the XP-Pen brand in general?

Basically, what I'd like to know is how well they function, do they break down much, accuracy of the pen, etc. If anyone can provide a link or some resource that gives some solid information on this product, let me know! :)

(I'm only looking for information on this specific tablet, not Wacom or Aiptek or any other brand.)

Are there different types of power supply? Is it bad to get one that's too powerful? Do all power supplies have a standard number of plugs? How do I figure out how much power (200, 400 watts...) my computer needs? Should I always buy new? And so on.
