Alright, thanks.

So, I’m running an Intel Core i5-2500K at 4.5 GHz around the clock, and I was wondering if I should actually bother enabling Internal PLL Overvoltage or not. I've been digging through various forums where people claim there's absolutely no point in turning it on at these relatively modest frequencies, yet a buddy of mine was insisting today that I definitely should.

I’d honestly go as far as saying it might be less, since 64-bit applications tend to be heavier than their 32-bit counterparts.

The difference only really shows up in specific software, which isn't something you'll notice during standard daily use. My advice is to just stick with 32-bit unless you specifically need the extra memory overhead for running virtual machines or something similar.

I mainly use my PC for multimedia, browsing, and gaming—in that order.

So, I should just leave it as is?

Here is the situation. I accidentally installed Windows 7 32-bit instead of the 64-bit version. Since I am running 4GB of RAM, I am wondering if it is actually worth the hassle of reinstalling the 64-bit edition just to see if I might get any noticeable performance gains.

Thanks!

I could use some advice here.

Someone from San Francisco needs to mail me two concert tickets, but honestly, I don’t really trust them. I have zero desire to receive some crumpled-up scrap of paper or some useless spikes in the mail. 😁

How can I ask them to send the tickets without sounding rude or confrontational? Is there actually any way to verify what’s being sent before I part with my money?

Thanks.

It’s a decent enough way to kill some time, though the original is clearly superior. 🙂
