Quad core testers are needed

[Nowyoudie]

Hmm I could try this once the game's released in NA...

Not quite a quad core, but still more than two..

CPU: AMD Phenom X3 @ 2,66GHz
RAM: 2GB
GPU: ATI HD 3850 (Club3D 256MB version)
OS: Vista SP1
Resolution: 1680x1050

Test 1 (No settings changed): 1915,40
Test 2 (-cpuCount=3, affinity on all cores): 1879,79
Test 3 (-cpuCount=2, affinity on 2 & 3. core): 1867,37
Test 4 (-cpuCount=1, affinity on last core): 1363,84

Hi,
I've just ordered a copy of ArmA2 and It should be on the way...
I got a dual quad core opteron 2350 (2.0GHz) with a L1N64-SLI WS and 8GB of DDR2-667 with dual 8800GTS 640 SLI.
When the game will arrive I'll test the multicore capabilities of this game up to 8 cores, and in a matter of days I'll also get a Tyan S2915 which will have better NUMA and DDR2-800 support.
I also own both Arma Armed Assault and Queen's Gambit, but none of them uses more than one core at once....

I have to make a tip for the i7 owner, if the affinity is set to 3 or 4 cores when the hyperthreaing is enabled, you might be using only 2 cores, so be sure to disable the HT before setting the affinity.
I'm new on this forum and I hope to get and give help!!!

Cool, these results make me happy about having a Q9550 @ 2.8 ghz

my settings might have been higher then demanded
but my results are
test 1 -35.1197
test 2 -39.854
test 3 -31.9574
test 4 -44.2478
test 5 -16.61
OFPMARK =3355.78
i run 8 core i7 cpu 940 @2.93Ghz
6MB triple channel ddr3
vista sp1 64bit
ati 4890 crossfire enabled X2

anyway when they say multicore suport it means it support as many cores you want
this post is ridiculous ..just cpuCount=X if the game cant read the cores
and other target parameters
mine looks like this -cpuCount=8 -maxmem=2047 -winxp -noCB -nosplash

I7 isn't 8 core cpu . it's 4 , with SMT

[galzohar]

It's supposed to run better with 8 threads rather than 4, though I wonder if that setting (above 4) has any effect.

[Sam75]

the command -cpuCount=x doesn't work ?

why using task manager ?

[galzohar]

I didn't say it doesn't work, read the thread please... I just wondered if setting to more than 4 does anything or not.
