What CPU do you have?

[carbon dude oxide]

he he

dell Inspiron 580
Intel Core i5 CPU 760 @ 2.80GHz
6.00GB RAM
(extra 3 GB on ready boost =D)
64-bit operating system
windows 7 home premium service pack 1.
1TB HDD - OS
1TB HDD - films and crap (also backup of main =D)
Dell card reader (does not work with my computer even though it came with the computer T.T
56X disk drive


1GB graphics card

even with all of this it is not fast enough for me it lags when i have more then 10 windows on (WOW, msn, Skype, Chrome, Mozilla, Warzone, Notes, Couple of windows explorers (file browser ones), Roblox, Blender, itunes, windows mail and several other programs).

and yes i do have these open all at the same time =D althogh i do put the game programs on high priority =D

what model is your graphics card? (the difference is huge)
Also you may have more background processes going on than you think...

I think it's just because windows doesn't allow any real multitasking yet.

what????

I'm in no position to discuss the technical details, that's just what my user experience says (hiding it because it's offtopic (in fact, i don't really want to have this sort of thread in our forum)):

Spoiler:

On windows, if you run 10 cpu-intensive tasks per CPU core, you simply hang or have some real lag. On linux, you still actually operate on the remaining 1/11 of CPU. On my hardware with windows, when i burned a CD, i couldn't even listen to music smoothly; on linux with the same hardware, i don't notice any performance impact at all. I also read a few long discussions on that.

16GB DDR3 RAM
64-bt Windows 7 Professional
128GB SSD and a 256 GB SSD
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670M Graphics and intel intergrated grapics (warzone uses nvidia as the intel ones crash T.T)
and a light up keyboard

this is a laptop with a 17" screen ^.^

So there you have it. I wanted to include a complete dump of /dev/kmem and a diagram of the wiring for my backlight, but that might be long-winded.
