Posted May 26, 201213 yr Just tested 01 with one and 2 cores on Ivy Bridge. Car low scores about 200 fps lower with one core compared with 2. Other tests are about the same. Anyone else tried this?
May 26, 201213 yr Crew it's always best to use 2 cores at least. with one the performance is worse because this one core also have to "keep" the OS. with 2 cores the second one can "keep" the OS and the other one can be fully utilized for the benchmark. on some benchmarks it has more influence than on others.
May 26, 201213 yr Author Never tried this before, but it seems the other tests are lower. Scored about 136k with 6500 1 core, 143k with 2 cores at 6400 with GTX570.
May 27, 201213 yr Crew Most cpu's loose 100-200mhz with 4 cores, unless you got a good one like the big boys here...
May 27, 201213 yr I've never ran 1C/1T I always keep a second core enabled for O.S. offload, like Karl said.
May 27, 201213 yr Most cpu's loose 100-200mhz with 4 cores, unless you got a good one like the big boys here... mine does 6.5 4c but not 06
May 27, 201213 yr its not that stable at that high but i changed the paste but havent tested it under ln2 maybe today...
