is it possible to have such a thing as a computer with an AMD Motherboard, with an intel pentium processor i spoke to my music teacher about this he recommended an intel pentium, but then i asked my dads friend if i could upgrade my processor and he says u can but u will have to change the motherboard to intel aswell is this right ?

There are motherboards that support AMD processors, there are motherboards that support Intel processors, and there are motherboards that support both(very rare but example at link below). http://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-309-1.htm Your motherboard likely will need to be replaced if you want to replace the AMD with an Intel CPU ricky wrote: > is it possible to have such a thing as a computer with an AMD Motherboard, > with an intel pentium processor > i spoke to my music teacher about this he recommended an intel pentium, but > then i asked my dads friend if i could upgrade my processor and he says u > can but u will have to change the motherboard to intel aswell is this right > ? > > "Bob I" <birelan@yahoo.com> wrote in message > news:O14v%23y%232GHA.4648@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > >>Why ever not?!?!?!?! >> >>ricky wrote: >> >> >>>Can anyone reccomend a pc that can handle alot of music production , i >>>basically use my pc to mix and create music, i have an amd athlon xp, but >>>athlons cant handle things like that am i right, is intel pentium >>>recommended >> > > |

You need a different motherboard to run a Pentium than you do to run an AMD. If you switch to an AMD 64 dual-core processor you still need a new motherboard as your current one will not work with that type of AMD processor. Anyone who dismisses the use of an AMD processor because it is not an Intel processor is not someone I would put too much trust in regarding hardware advice. See this article in which all the benchmark tests run comparing AMD and Intel dual-core processors show that the AMDs are the better performers http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10442_7-6389077-1.html. |

In many cases, an Athlon will outperform a Pentium, when using comparable AMD and Intel processors. |

I don't know anything about the software you're running but your processor is no slouch. I run an AMD 2600+ and it's as fast as I need it to be. RAM is a big factor, how much are you running? Since I do some intensive database work using Access, I bumped mine up to 1.5 ghz of RAM and haven't looked back. Of course, I'd love a new 64 bit processor but I cannot justify the cost based on my need, or should I say lack of a need, for a new system. Besides, if I spend my money on new components, that will be less money available for my next camera :) "ricky" <rick_807@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:usYFwAG3GHA.1568@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > My current Processor is an, AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 1.99 GHz, > > "Peter A.

I have 960 MB of ram i'm using my computer mostly for music production like, cubase,fl, traktor dj stdio,etc, and have an external 250gb toshiba hard drive i have a very lot of music production software vsts synths sequencers,my music teacher was saying that i dont think your amd processor can handle big applications like that, he recommended an intel pentium,i notice in fruityloops when i am editing midi files it runs awful slow, i'll play a sample and it starts distorting, the sound goes all crackly. what specifications,processor,ram etc, do u recommend for a pc thats jst purely all music production "Peter A.

although i have had my pc for quite sometime now i was thinking about upgrading the processor to an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor "Peter A.
