Parent

Parent

Parent
not when i dont know much about pc's.

It might seem stupid to you but not to me.
Parent
well yes, i think you can already buy it but it'll cost ALOT :) afaik a ps3 has an octacore in it...don't know much about my pc's myself
Parent
ah ok :), just wondered.
Parent
Put 2 quad cores in a system :D
Parent
You can't, it can only use one, like most other things to.
that would be fun
my friend got that pc too, he didnt need to do that it was auto ? h_H
You don't have 4 processors, you have 4 cores and you can put all them running by setting the process afinity in the task manager.

ET uses as many cores as you have, but it gets fucked up once ET launch etpro, so it goes down to 1 core again. If you want to put 4, you'll have to minimize the game once it's running etpro, and then set the afinity.
set affinity
Wich is in the proccess list, rightclick on the proccess, and its under "set priority", you can allocate an image to X number of cores in your CPU, i have no idea wether windows will remember this, and re-use it next time the image is run.

For the newer applications it auto-selects all cores

It does not for ET and you have to reselect it every time

but afaik it wont work properly since ET doesnt support it
