Foliage Dual-core Performance

Oblivion – Direct3D

Oblivion Performance 800x600x32
CPU	Min FPS	Max FPS
X2 4800+	88	98
A64 4000+	79	86
X2 4200+	82	89
A64 3500+	74	81

Note

Under the more stressful foliage demo the performance impact of dual-core isn’t as large, as the GPU is stressed much more than in our mountains area. Here the X2 4800+ and A64 4000+ are separated by 11%, while the margin between the X2 4200+ and A64 3500+ is trimmed to 10%.
