Is Counter-Strike 1.6 Multithreaded?

Hi all

Did a google but could not find any definitive evidence so hopefully you guys can help me out, does CS 1.6 make use of two cores?

Cheers

Thanks for the comments guys, my old P4 805 just isnt powerful enough using a single core then, gonna opt for a E5200 or E5300.

Didnt the revisions just change to E0 on these cpus? Whats the difference between M0 does anybody know, apparently all E5300 are E0 Intel did not make an M0, this true and should I go for the E5300? Only £2 more on OCUK

Nope wont run 100fps constant, in smoke its awful. Many years ago my XP2600 and MX440 run it constant 100fps no problems, now my 9700pro and 805 3.2ghz struggles, im sure steam have added patches that rob performance, pc is running well atm just bought a new hard drive and I always close down unwanted programs and run gamebooster before playing.

Above post I meant M0 and recent R0 revisions, not E0 lol

CS is the only game I find I have to play at 100fps with as its fairly fast paced, I know you only see 30fps etc but anything less than 60 just feels laggy! Im gonna get an E5** I think
