which version for a 4-core processor?

Post by roy pittman »

I am setting up a new computer and I am struggling with being up-to-date. I want the new hardware but am unsure of some really basic things.
My new box will have an i5 4-core processor. What version of Linux Mint should I use?

You should use any version you like. Handling 4 core processors is done in the kernel, and so will work with any of the desktop versions.
