et with quadcore?

how well does et work with something like q6600, does it use only one?

fps > 100 + stable?

U can decide how many cores it uses
i am used to work with only 1 core, so can i deside for every application, which core it uses?

nice loosing braundorf...
Parent
I blame that multigaming we are in :o
Parent
I heard u are the main guy of that multigaming!
Parent
don't think so
Parent
swine and important .. be realistic ;D
Parent
And ? Just because you set 4 cores doesnt mean that et will use 4 cores.. I mean et is not coded for multi core.
Parent
True, but u can still set it like it should be using 4 cores
Parent
Yep.. but its useless. As far i know, if you go make some benchmark test you will get the same result using 1/2 or 4 cores.
Parent
Ye, but if you got a problem while processing the game, it wont be coded again, but will be given to the other processor to solve the process correctly. ^^

Its true its not good for high fps, but they are stable (or should be at least... thx to microsoft)
Parent
No performance boost , believe me , I tried it
Parent
fsp = ?
Got Q6600 and got 125 stable..
an it works with one core or more?
Parent
one.
You can use the other cores for ur background work.
Parent
only one, u can choose which
Im using both cores when im playing ET
Parent
1 for ET + 1 for your Hack

sounds logical!
Parent
My hacks worked fine with my old computer ;<
Parent
but ET uses only one of them ;D
Parent
It will be reset at 1 core when a map changes, it only can use one core.
Parent
How can you set the core a program uses?
task manager-> right click application-> set affinity
Parent
From task manager
Parent
no problems wit two cores so i guess you should get 100 fps stable
ot: reicher (b)engel :p
Sometimes It does smt, i dunno how to describe it, the fps counter says 125 fps, but the game is "jumpy", as-if its freeze framing.
Ive found the best way to fix is : Start et, then load the etpro. then check taskman, change the affinity from core 0,1,2,3, to just 1 of those, i use0. then connect to ur svr. Thats only if u do get that problem, i assumed its quad core related as none of my mates have quadcore / this problem.
Ye, same here with Dualcore, setting it to high priority is also helpful ^^
Parent
wtf these girls in your profile really suck
Parent
Good bless that the tastes are different. :D
Parent
indeed ^_^
Parent
Wth , I got to agree with you again lol :D

look like emo's :X
Parent
Emo girls > all ;/
Parent
got q6600 and got 125fps stable
You asign it to the wrong core imo ^^
you will barely run ET with quadcore my guess would be 15-20 fps :<
stable 125 here, could get much more
Parent
Erm , there are quadcores with 3.2Ghz each core

And I got dual-core with 1.87Ghz each core , I get 76FPS (halfstable) and I got integrated vidcard! (with dedicated I can get 125 FPS stable)
Parent
you can only use 1 with dualcore, why would quadcore suddenly allow more?
My dual core laptop plays et without any problems like i described ^
me has dual core but i dont even know how to use both...

oO
