Dual Core Windows Vista

Post by compmark »

Just curious. I have an Intel dual core PC running Vista. When I run GForce with iTunes core 1 maxes out but core 2 runs at 8%. When I run GForce in stand alone core 2 maxes out and core 1 runs at 8%. Is there a way to run the program so it uses both cores.
Also if if I run them at full screen the vis is choppy. At 80% of the screen it is awesom. Thanks, Mark

G-Force currently does not utilize dual cores, so keep that in mind. The new version 3.70 does load files using both cores but it does not generate the effects in real-time with both.

You do need an extremely fast CPU and perhaps one that is overclocked to achieve acceptable frame rates at high resolutions greater than 1360x768. Also, Vista runs G-Force much slower than Windows XP as of our last test in May.

Hope this helps.
