[QUOTE="slyydrr, post: 199387, member: 16374"] That's a very good point to make Vicky... Applications need to be optimized for hardware upgrades, whether it be a Dual Core system, Dual Processor system, or even a simple Multi-Threaded system. That's why often times when people are doing RAM tests on a Multi-Threaded or Dual Core system, or CPU stressing in general, they tell you to run two instances of the program simply because they programs themselves aren't written to use both cores/threads/CPUs, and therefore only use up 50% of the maximum CPU power available.
