Do you have a single or multi core processor?

[samtheeagle 0]

I've got a dual core cpu, 50% of which sits idle whilst WOV/WOE rattles along. I've read a number of posts about this, and TK stated that the code was well positioned to support multiple cores, it was just that not many people had them at the time...

 

What about now? Do most people have multi core systems these days?

[Viper6 3]

Dual core 3.2ghz

[MigBuster 2,884]

Dual cores were out of my price range in the dark ages (2005 ) - next system will be multi core though

Same here, but last year I upgraded my socket 939 system with the cheapest dual core I could find and overclocked it.

[Spinners 15,986]

Single core - 3.0 chip.

Got a single here at a wheezing 1.0GHz.

Not sure what mine counts as, it's a pentium 4 with a hyperthreading virtual second core, 3.5 ghz

[+ravenclaw_007 7,633]

Core Duo E6600 2.4Ghz with 4MB L2 cache

[Longestpants 1]

Not sure what mine is, it's an AMD Sempron at about 1.6 GHz.

[+suhsjake 11]

Intel Q6600 2.4ghz overclocked to 3.0 ghz

[Silverbolt 104]

Pentium Dual core 1.6 overclocked to 2.0Ghz

[Guest USNadpc]

Core2Duo E8500 3.16 ghz (not presently overclocked)

[+starfighter2 117]

2 machines, 2 procs>

one with single core - AMD Athlon 2100+ 1.73GHz (not overclocked)

second with dual core - AMD Athlon 4000+ 2.1Ghz (overclocked to stabile 2.41 Ghz)

[Arrow 83]

Single core Athlon 64 @ 3.2 Ghz. I'd like to chuck my mobo and go with an Athlon X2, but there's lots of things to spend my $ on; like a new HOTAS for example. :)

After 5 years struggle with PIV 2,4 GHz month ago I switched to E8200 rated 2,67 GHz, to be overclocked. And GF8800 GT 512 MB, contrary to GF6600 GT 256. And 4 GB ram opposed to previously now-tiny 1 GB. Good old rig short-circuited on motherboard, forced me to make good investment. And for a month or so I was in graphics&performance gallore. Crysis, Gothic 3, Two Worlds. I felt like a kid. It was quite hard to return here. Not that SF series have poor graphics... But trees won't break when shot... Ok, enough of this

And you think on which system I plant all those trees of mine at work when my boss ain't looking? Very, very similar

ROFL, fortunately your trees came after i get my new pc

and don't ask me why, but i could play lock on for 20 mins without get trouble with it, after that the pc simply frozen, and was recomended to shut off

well, i must admit that many of us have good cpu's to go on with.

I must confess, though, that my old pc (athlon 1200,768 ram ati radeon 64mb) never betrayed me in any kind of mission, with all requested effects on maximum.Guys,do not exagerate so much!!!!!!!!!
