ARMA2 & OA : Muti-Core Optimization

[gazmen 0]

Hi, some day ago I re‑placed my Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3GHz by Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 3GHz. In all games I have 1,5x to 2x more FPS, I tested ARMA2 & OA, and there is no dif‑ference at all. I use a GTX 970 card and before a GTX 275, so I think I should have an im‑provement but in games, I have 22FPS like before !

I setted launch com‑mand "-nosplash -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=7" but no dif‑ference at all...

Is Arma 2 optimized for multi-core or not ? I know Arma is not if I believe what I read here :

Sadly no, Arma 3 has the same prob

Even Arma 3 is not optimized for multi‑cores & multi‑threading ? Why the de‑velopers don't make a patch to re‑solve this issue for Arma 2 & 3 ???

What is strange, it's if I monitor the core usage from CPU1 to CPU4 in MSI Afterburner OSD, I can see that all cores are working overs 65%...

The Arma Serie is full of strange things and the most are only fixable by the Developer himself....or not i fear?. And the only one who fixing A2/OA at the moment is not a BIS Dev xD
