Yea I concur this, I've seen results posted on 2 different forums regarding UT3 FPS multicore scaling tests. Still above 2 cores the difference starts become rather small, a gap of which a higher clocked dual core CPU that isn't as much fsb wall strangled as a quad is, can fill up quite well. But UT3 depends a lot on the CPU too that's for sure and I notice it particularly well since I'm only on a 19" CRT and using res 1280x960.
A bit offtopic but useful info regarding this game, I use this game to determine if my RAM & CPU is gaming stable too as it's better finding instability than even Orthos or memtest sometimes (not kidding). I had UT3 crashing on me randomly and wondered why since no other stress tests I used failed on me, but it turned out to be ram instability and now UT3 runs happily again.
