Number of cores
« on: April 04, 2010, 10:39:29 PM »
Hello,
I've heard lots of really good things about Jest server and I'm really tempted to purchase a new 12slot private call of duty 4 server, but I would like to know the difference between a 4 Core Affinity and an 8 Core Affinity.

Thanks,
Cypress

the difference is literal: 4 cores = 1 cpu with 4 cores vs 8 cores = 2 cpu's with 4 cores.

however, if it's COD4 and under 32 slots, you will NOT see much (if any) in the way of server performance between a 4 core or 8 core setup (as long as the clockspeed is the same).
