    I do a lot of multitasking on my PC. Like burning a DVD while I'm surfing the web and maybe editing some video from my camcorder.
    If I can't overclock my Sony Vaio PCV-RZ22g can I upgrade the CPU to a CPU that has HT technology?
    I have a ASUSTeKMotherboard model number P4S533VL Rev 1.xx with a CPU slot/socket type mPGA-478with a SIS ID651 Rev 2 chip set
    Thanks,
    Mike
