CPU Affinity and FPS in games.
Go to solution
Solved by Silyy097,
So what does CPU Affinity do exactly? I was messing around with some things playing BF4 and when I sent the affinity to cores 0-4 it completely and utterly tanks. It goes to 72 FPS then 10 then 15 then 68 then so on and so on. However when all of the cores for affinity are on it plays perfectly fine. So what is the big idea ? And waht does CPU Affinity help with?
CPU Affinity helps when you want a certain number of cores tasked to this certain workload and the rest of the cores tasked to this other workload (Eg on a 6300, 4 cores to editing and the other 2 to idle, used for everything else) so that the computer will not lag like crap on older computers.
When you are gaming, dont set the affinity, just leave it to utilize all cores.
