CPU scaling in games with dual & quad core processors ...

guru3d.com — Guru3D takes 10 modern dual & quad core processors and then fires off a dozen of games at them in combo with a high-end graphics card. Then they observe the raw differences in performance with the more modern games. They show & scale 8 AMD & Intel Quad-core processors and 2 dual-core processors in gaming resolutions from 1024x760 up-to 2560x1600.

  • stresslife, on 05/15/2008, -0/+4Excellent article... however, it also shows that $100 CPU with $600 graphics card can do more than a $1200 CPU with a $100 graphics card.
  • Bender1001, on 05/26/2008, -0/+2Great article, gonna keep it around so I can lord it over all those users I know that buy Quad core CPU's claiming that it's gonna make World of WarCraft run "crazy fast". God stupid nobs...
  • ipaj, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1I agree with DavidL6 - it would have been good to have seen the results with FSX. However, good article and even though I'm an FSX fan I've decided to go down the dual-core route for now.
  • DavidL6, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1FSX should have been included in the tests. FSX does use all 4 cores of a Quad. Other than that oversight (not testing with FSX), a good article.
