hey leopardi, have you tryed it already? because i am also thinkin about buying a 6 core cpu.

hows the performance?

[Nicholas 5]

Yes, use -cpucount=6 and -exthreads=7.

I'm also interested in buying the 6-core CPU by AMD. It's the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz. Is this also the same one your looking at KraziKilla?

6 cores beats my dual core. :mad:

Yes Dice, exactly this one i am lookin at.

Have you found any new tests with operation arrowhead and this cpu? or arma2, version 1.7?

wanna buy that one too,but 255€ still to expensive atm.

will wait until its under 200€.

the phenom ii x6 isn't exactly what you would call a fast 6 core

[NeMeSiS 11]

Thats in 1.05 though, i wonder how much it improved compared to the last beta.

as You can see ... X6 cores are fastest for the price tag they are ...

the only what comes faster 5-10% is one quadcore from intel

yet still 10-15% more expensive ...

Dwarden, do you know how much improvement the 1.7 Patch really brings, refering to multicore support?

All tests which i found yet were done with 1.5 Version of ArmA.

0%

1-5%

6-10%

11-15%?

more?

If someone could test a 6 core with the newst patch it would be great.
