Quake 4 Single vs Dual core

[mmj_uk]

Using the newest patch...

1680*1050
single 81
dual 88

800*600
single 98fps
dual 120fps

Hardly breathtaking i must say.

Those results are to be expected though - at 800x600 you're CPU limited, hence the large boost in FPS. At 1680x1050 you're GPU limited so you won't see a large boost in FPS

That's the thing though, I wouldn't call it large it all...

I would've expected at least 40-50% improvement in CPU limited situations which is why I benched at 800*600 too, but 20%??
