You can then set multi-threading on, off or auto. Setting it on will use 2 of your CPU cores if it has more than one.
|
||||
If CPU affinity is set on, the game will try to detect the number of cores in your CPU, and use multi threading only when it thinks there are more cores.
|
||||
Note: in certain CPU / OS combo only one core is detected even if there are multiple ones - switch off CPU affinity if you think you are in this situation.
