Core optimizers?

on the other hand, on a quad core you`ll see lower cpu usage vs dual core. so check how high your cpu usage and your friend's, thats where you`d see the benefit of having a quad.

I dunno, I jumped about 20FPS in Grid by upgrading to a 2600K from a E7300. The number of cores arent really a number to go by. Arciture and other internal workings dicate how good a CPU is. Also, you have to look at the games being played. RTS games like cores, the more the better. BC2 also loves cores. You pretty much need a quad to play that higher than 1680x1050 on high settings.
kitamesume:
you do know that you jumped from a dual core into a quad+4(HT)[technically an octa though 4fake cores] processor right? well anyway, there are games that loves cores, and games that hates cores, but on average basis, its a 5-10fps gain from 2core to 4core jump.

reading through threads while filtering out poorly thought out posts have been hard lately
