ummm... ok... I guess my X2 6000 is an 8 core then...

just for the hell of it I thought i'd try use the -cpucount= command line parameter, I tried it on 1 and ran the Benchmark 08 mission which seemed to use about 70% of my cpu which is a little more than 1 core but hey... though very surprisingly to me it gave me exactly the same average framerate as when using 2 cores, 29fps. Then I tried 3 and noticed it using about 95% and got 27fps.......... /sigh but whatever.

Lets try -cpucount=8 just for the hell of it. 33fps but more importantly MUCH higher maximum framerate, like from about 35fps up to around 55fps in the same test. Yet slightly lower in some areas bringing the average down. Just going by eye it definately looked better, and played better as well. I dunno maybe worth a shot?

P.S. I have a GTX275 and play at 1920x1080 with a varied combination, AA off, AF very high, Textures high, terran/object very low, shadow/HDR normal, postprocess disabled, vsync off

If you mean 'Benchmark 1' from ArmA2, 'Benchmark 2' is the only one that really matters in this case IIRC.

:rolleyes: benchmark 08 mission is the Arrowhead benchmark, i think he means that one. :)

Thats why i said 'if you mean', benchmark 1 i the 8th one from the top so it wasnt really clear to me, and would make his findings make more sense. (Though ive never run the OA benchmark before, dont know what it relies on)
