i doubt that will significally increase the boot time – try defragmenting your C: drive
So you dont have to sit there for 5 mins or so before your computer actually gets to a point where you can use it
why would you want to increase your boot time….
Thank you for pointing this out, I shall change the title, my mistake!
I am glad it was useful to you, do join us on our community site if you would like to discuss any ideas etc in the forums – google “XCore Exchange”
Pardon, but that’s essentially a mention, not a review. Still, I did learn something as I hadn’t heard of the 500MHz speed grade, and it’s nice to see the L family (with edge connections, thus easier for hobby use) rise in performance to dual core as well.
