I am thinking of upgrading my P4 HT 3.2 to 64 Bit Processors. I am seriously thinking about a dual core AMD's Athlon 64 X2 processors. Can anyone tell me if CURRENT open suse 64 bit version will be able to address the dual Processor. This is NOT an HT issue. Its processor origami like Intel core 2 processors. Many thanks Also with the Linux O/S - despite processor limitations work that markedly better with hugs amounts of RAM. For example I have 2 GIG of RAM currently and am thinking of changing it to 4 GIG. I understand that the kernel can use more file cacheing, but that is what I do not want to know. With the superior way the Linux Kernel manages Memory, if we remove the increased file caching ability will the Kernel be able to utilise the extra memory registers for processing. I know the immediate answer to the above under Windows, but M$ has severe limitations in the amount of memory it can use for direct processing - Its a disaster how than can continue to realise new software where the O/S has to have memory management and severe limitation is what amount of memory the processor can directly address - Its still out of the ark.
