An OCed dual-core will give better bang for buck in this game. the last few patch have WoW ultilizing quads natively by default. prior to that patch, you need to manually check affinity for the remaining cores other than 0 and 1 (your 1st and 2nd dual core, basically) less work on task manager > wow.exe > affinity > check 2 cores > ok  so yeah, WoW does ultilizes quad cores, any more, i wouldnt know since i run on quad only

QUOTE(Aggroboy @ May 3 2010, 10:31 AM) Well Blue has specifically said that practically everything is on the main core. Only minor sound and various misc processing is offloaded to the other cores. So yeah, fast dual-core is best for WoW. Those rich jokers should just retrofit the engine to support multicore, at least we don't have to go into this gigahertz arms race just to be able to raid. Even a half-arsed multi-core support would mean we can continue raiding in Cataclysm with just a Q6600. well its not just the lesser items that are offloaded, i have a x-fi titanium so for sure sound wont be offloaded, if anything its just physx that i dont have a physical card to take over, but WoW isnt too heavy on phsysics anyways rofl and after said patch, all my 4 cores are running at same load btw  and rather heavy too at some 50-70%, as opposed to my XPS lappie's dual core almost constant 100% load rofl.

QUOTE(e2bitz @ May 11 2010, 09:09 AM) i belive what im going to buy is Quad Processor rite?.. it is much better then 3 Core... i prefer more stable processor coz im not that good in OC anyway... I live in JB, i cant trade with u guys for the location factor. quad core so? the clock speeds and cache are so horseshit, i doubt it'd help much for your case at all
