    Can someone list games with MULTI CORE enabling?


    so far i only know of Portal 2, and i have EVERYTHING MAXED and it runs silky smooth (50-60fps)

    as we all know ( or should ) most games only use 1 core, not taking full advantage of our quad core systems

    FSX (if you consider that "gaming". I consider it "simming". :) )

    Actually, most DirectX 10 and DirectX 11 games support multiple cores.

    bad company 2 and GTA IV are big CPU hogs, I'm pretty sure both support it(BFBC2 isn't very efficient with the CPU though)
