CS:GO: Cores and Hyper-Threading benchmarked
WARNING: Your results may vary!
I see how the number of cores / threads you have affects your framerate in CS:GO. I tested up to 6 cores / 12 threads.
Hyper-Threading (And soon multi-threading with AMD's Ryzen) makes each of your processor's cores act like 2. It's great for certain types of work, but not necessarily in CS:GO. I investigate with this video. Benchmarks were consistent and the results, interesting.
Just so that you know, Skadoodle has an Intel 6700HQ, which has 4 cores / 8 HT.
I adjusted the number of cores / threads used by setting the Affinity values in the Windows Task Manager.
0:34 - Hyper-threading explained using wonderful diagrams.
1:40 - Non-HT results
2:22 - Multicore Rendering Enabled - or else!
1:59 - HT results
2:42 - Conclusion: HT VS Non-HT
