That's what I like to see
Heh. It doesn't work that way. It uses all four (three of which it uses quite a bit). You can't jumble the math any way you want it and say something like "If you add it up, you can see that it only uses one core at 270%." I'd also like to point out that three cores stay around 75% and the forth at 25% which averages a bit closer to three fully loaded cores instead of two if you do still want to look at it that way.

Nice pic of FSX though. Does it make an in-game responsiveness improvement? That's always been one of the complaints I hear about FSX from real pilots--slow response.
