It's good to see people here taking an interest in game development.

And yeah, you should probably hide the mouse cursor. lol

Should probably add some torches, and make a wood floor. Might I suggest a checkered birch-oak plank floor pattern?

Is this you shygriff?

I'm not sure. The age is different than on their blockland profile, but the name capitalization and typing style is the same.

actually a 4.0 ghz quad core is better than 20ghz single core because the latter would just probably explode instantaniously
Lol'd.

if we're talking about a single core 20GHz sure fine whatever that would do wonderful.  too bad that doesn't exist.
That's not the loving point th-

I'm done.

ok i don't even care for bisjac but at this point you guys are just trying to start an anti-bisjac circlejerk here.

multicore processors ARE better.  there's no question about it.
Yes, they do meet the needs of today in a more sufficient manner than single core processors do. That wasn't even the point of the discussion though. In a case where you had a quad core 4ghz processor or a 20ghz single core, the single core would outperform the quadcore, even when taking multitasking speeds into account.

Four programs in a quadcore would run at 4ghz each. On a 20ghz single core, they would run at 5ghz.

you know that computer hardware dosnt work like that right? you dont just add up the cores and multiply the ghz and say tada! big number!

learn to computer

i would actually prefer a 500mhz processor with 100 cores.
im sure the logistics of making that is pretty out of range. but single processes arent getting harder to run, and likely never will. the future is multitasking, not speed.
I love how we've gone from a simple question of "which would run faster" to "you know nothing about computers multitasking is better for the real world everyone is wrong but me!"

dont cpus just multiply the ghz?
so like a quad core 4gz is theoretically  a 16ghz single core
Correct me if I'm wrong, but (most) applications use only a single core. When each core runs at 4ghz, that application runs at 4ghz. Because a computer can only essentially run only one single task or command at a time, running a second application would mean having to run both in parallel. The computer needs to alternate between the program's parts and execute them one after another, rather than both at the same time in every instance. The command stack would look something like this:

Code: [Select]
do something for program 1
do something for program 2
do something for program 1
do something for program 2

And basically, both programs would be running at 2ghz. With a third program, they'd be running at 4/3 ghz because of this fact, and so on.

Multiple cores allow programs to truly be run in parallel, meaning with a quad core, you could actually execute four commands at once, rather than process one after another. If four different programs were "assigned" to four different cores, all would run at 4ghz, without being slowed down by another program running on the same core.

Because of this, if you had one singular program running on a quad core 4ghz, and (for comparison purposes) a 10ghz single core, the 10ghz would win, because the first program can't actually use another core to go faster.

unless thats at least a dual core 4.0. no you shouldnt buy it.
It's a quad core, 4ghz.

Even if it were only a dual core 3ghz, that's good enough considering the graphics card.

Even then, haha. A copy of W7 home premium is like 100-200 bucks.
