One of the things I want to test out with the 6 core cpu is setting affinity.

Id like to see what kind of performance were are going to get setting 4 cores to specifically and only run a game while the other 2 cores do everything else in the background.

So in other words youd have to go in and shut down all processes for 4 cores and only leave those same cores to run the game or benchmark. The other 2 cores would be shut off for the game but on for everything else.

Im interested in trying this and it should be interesting result.
