no. i only get SSSE3.
you may read the SSE4.1 entry in the console, but it says: NOT detected SSE4.1

i did. it doesn't change anything, not even in PC Games.



The Atom isn't faster than you think
I think its equivalent to the 900mhz celeron, plus SSSE3, a lower power consumption and less heat.
It struggles a lot when running vista in power saving mode, i always have to use maximum performace, otherwise its too slow to use.

pcsx2 is also much slower in vista than in XP on it.

FFX intro:
XP: ~23fps (less or more)
Vista: only 14-15fps

Vista steals too much CPU performance for something, even when i use high priority for pcsx2.

by the way: i ordered a 32GB runcore SSD, should arrive at the following week
50MB/s write, 70MB/s read ... wow.. thats a new experience to EeePC (when the Atom don't bottneneck it) :X
