    I noticed something in my MSconfig\start up called AMD Dual Core optimizer. Will this slow my CPU down? I think i installed it to play fallout 3 a while back.

    Sorry for the noob question.

    hey joe, just uninstall it. You dont need it. It installed on my R3 as well when I had dowloaded Batman Arkam City off Steam. Noticed it as well and just uninstalled it. No effect what so ever and you dont need it to play Batman either.
