I hope all cores minus one are kept 100% busy. (The -1 core being used by the OS) This would mean all available cores are used to the fullest and the game is truly multi-core.
But as Mr. Maddox said, it's a hybrid "multi-core" technology. One would think that one CPU would be used for synchronous calculations and another one or two cores be used for not time critical calculations: Sound, visual effects, AI ground movements/path finding, supply lines and other such calculations.
I hope we'll still be able to benefit from 6 or 8 core CPU's in the future, but I guess we'll see 3 cores being used for CoD.
We better abuse the cores over 4 with other tasks. Fraps?
