I havent coded in like 20 years, but mazex is spot on. People who think creating a game engine that can make proper use of 2/4/8 or more threads is easy need to do some reading. There is a reason most software today barely scales beyond 2 threads. Heliocon, maybe you should just try it.
What I am curious about is the physx claim, that it would be useless for flightsims. I dont know about the API, maybe that is useless, but calculating the physics (rather than PhysX) does seem something that could benefit greatly from GPGPU (CUDA or OpenCL).
