Proksham Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Thinking about upgrading my 2500k when ivy bridge drops, but wasnt sure how well people are performing on a 6 core. I haven't monitored cpu usage myself but I'm guessing that swtor only utilizes 2 or 3 cores but I'm not the most tech savy. Does swtor currently benefit from a six core cpu instead of 4 at all?

Sorven Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I can't comment on the performance of a 6 core, however I did have a brief conversation with someone who was using an AMD 6 core cpu (the model escapes me at the moment) and he seemed pretty content with the performance. Also, I was curious as to the reason for the upgrade. I'm also running a 2500K at 4.4 GHz and the game looks beautiful at max settings (60-70 frames in open world).

Proksham Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 The z68 I currently have has been giving me occasional boot loops. This seems pretty common for gigabyte so I didn't bother trying to exchange. I figure I'd try out a new series msi or asus since they they just started dropping, and if I'm gonna swap boards what the hell, may aswell go ivy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
