Hi, I don't know if this is the right section for this thread but it's not much related to the hardware.
The thing is I bought yesterday a new Intel Dual Core E5200, with 2.5ghz, 2mb cache L2, 800mhz bus, etc.
I installed it on the motherboard and then booted ubuntu, just like that. I wanna know if I have to upgrade something, maybe the kernel or something like that, because I don't feel that my computer is going too much faster.
In fact, when i convert a movie using DeVeDe, it just goes a little faster, and my cores are not in 100%, one is at 60% constantly and the other is 100% and 20% half of the times. I don't know, i think it must go much faster.
I googled and read something about upgrading the motherboard bios or something like that, please tell me whatever changes and upgrades i have to do in order for my new cpu work properly.
I'd like your opinions please, thank you!
