Imperative to know when planning for a new rig.
I have a dual core and Forgotten Battles uses both cores. Maybe that will help answer your question about BoB? I can not see Oleg backing up with the new game.

Also, if you check on UBI forum, someone posted an INI setting to tell Forgotten Battles which core to use but I dont remember what it was.

Update: I went looking and found it and it does work:


[rts]
ProcessAffinityMask=1 or 2

If it equals 1, it uses the first core, if it equals 2 it uses the second core. Any other setting it uses both cores.
Not quite right. Zero is core 1. One is core 2 and 2 is both cores. There are even numbers to tell it to run on 3 and 4 cores if you have a quad core processor but I have tried this and Il2 does not run any better using 4 cores over 2 cores. Il2 does run better on 2 cores than 1 core.
