Hyperthreading - Finally an answer

Holy moly, I don't know how many people asked on the forums and how often I tried it at Youtube, but I finally got an answer.


@OlegMaddox:
"Could you please answer whether this game takes advantage by a hyperthreading CPU? This can save us about 100 buccs."

"Yes, but not so much."

Meh, still pretty vague of an answer. But better then nothing, I appreciate it

I'd be rather interested if it benefits from multithreading.

I don't know any game that would profit from Hyperthreading. AFAIK only professional software does.


But lately Oleg posted that only part of the sound-engine is multithreaded. So we will have to see how well it performs with DX10s use of multiple cores.

Can you even buy a single core these days?

Perhaps, but what does that have to do with this topic?

I wondered about the same thing

He is probably saying that it should be Multithreading enabled as you can no longer buy single core cpus.

Um...duh...

If you can't buy a single-core processor, the OP question is pointless to ask.

I cant understand why he uses Youtube when the forum for the game is here.
