you mentioned the "turbo boost" function ? is this something thats set "on" as default or is configurable etc ?

many thanks for y our help

It's on by default.

Basically when you have a task that requires 'more oomph', one of the cores 'auto-overclocks' a bit to provide more performance.

Overall with the newer chip and improved architecture compared to whatever was in the Vaio, performance should be up across the board.

The E-450 isn't meant to be a powerhouse, more of a low power 'all in one chip' for simple tasks and HD video playback.

You're welcome :)

OCing probably will not buy you a lot. What is the SSD ?? I never get 7.9 - 7.8 is best I ever got (from 6 different SSDs)

Add an SSD and it will be perfect.

Hi,

I built my first computer recently with the goal of never (with luck) needing to do anything to it.

I had some trouble initially, thanks again to usasma for all the help, now my computer is all working I wanted to.. well show it off really.

Not entirely sure if I should attempt the fabled 7.9 with overclocking but it currently works, so it will stay like this for a while.

Thanks

The SSD is an OCZ Agility 3, it's connected to the sata 3 and set to AHCI.

Although it's my second one, first one caused me many issues as it was faulty and confirmed dead by ebuyer and replaced.

Wife's new Laptop for Valentines day just set it up less then a hour ago

I think it could play low fram games too
