Crysis Benchmarking - Methodology and Mythbusting

[jas420221]

First, let me say excellent post about benchmarking Crysis!!!! Great job!

But I have a problem with this statement below.

Today on market there are NO multicore optimized games! There are only dualcore optimized titles, and Cryris is one of them! Only use of multicore CPU's with this games is that you'll be able to run some parallel tasks (preferably on another HDD), during the gaming session!

Doesnt Supreme Commander use 4 cores? Lost Planet? Also, I have seen Crysis use 4 cores as well. They were not all maxed out, but there was significant CPU usage on cores 3 and 4.

There are a few games out already that can utilize more than 2 cores.

Let me see if I can find those threads.
Some Valve games do

I guess the key word is OPTIMIZED. There are a few games that can use more than 2 cores, but none are OPTIMIZED to do so.
