Quad core games

[Nateku]

Okay, so I was debating whether or not to post in this forum or the games one, but it is concerning processors.

I'm getting a quad core computer, and I know that most games don't support quad core. I want to know, however, what games DO support it. If anyone has a link to a list of quad core supported games, that'd be great. Or at least a few suggestions. ^_^

Thanks in advance.

Crysis is only otimized for dual-cores, and not all DX10 games are quad-optimized, very few are for that matter.

probably there aren't games out right now that use all 4 cores.

>_> D'oh!

Oh well. I suppose I'm future proof at least.

I was told they released a patch and made it optimized for quad cores?

Unreal Tournament 3 is optimized for quad cores by the way.

Hardly any applications out there take advantage of multiple cores and 64bit OSes. There is also no such thing as future proof.

Ah yea, I heard there was a patch coming up... didn't know they already released it, though. You may well be right...

Well, yeah I know it's not actually future proof, but I think it'll definitely last me a heck of a long time. ^_^
