Dual Core and Affinity

This is a discussion about Dual Core and Affinity in the Windows Hardware category; Just recently got a dual-core rig, Pentium D 830. Was wondering if anyone had played around with affinity for programs that utilize MP. For instance while I use Premiere Pro 1. 5, should I set my affinity to only one processor for explorer.

Just recently got a dual-core rig, Pentium D 830. Was wondering if anyone had played around with affinity for programs that utilize MP. For instance while I use Premiere Pro 1.5, should I set my affinity to only one processor for explorer.exe and other processes that are not needing two chips? Should i set priorities higher etc etc...
