DCS, VR & Hyper Thread in MT worth it?

[The_Nephilim]

Hey Guys,

 

I seen an real old post where it states to keep HT On in DCS while using MT. Now I was wondering has anybody did any testing to see if this is still true and if so what were the results of your testing??

 

If nobody has done the test I guess I could check into it just was wondering what would be the best way to go about it with DCS?

As far as I know this is still the case

“Currently, users with more than 32 threads should disable HT/SMT, but for everyone else we recommend enabling HT/SMT.”

OK I see but was there any testing conducted to see if this is fact the case. I still see in VR it can cause stuttering?? so that is why I asked..

 

I will do some testing then.. I will report back what I found.. now mind you a very much grain of salt with my findings and conclusions lol!!

Well my initial quick and dirty test showed HT ON caused stutters where there should be none. FPS were the same and all I just noticed more spikes in the frame counter just sitting on the runway in Kola with the apache in a MP Mission..

 

I am going to try and run without HT enabled for a bit and see how it goes overall..
