Splinter Cell: Blacklist Tested, Benchmarked

[Gorge09]

Hi, I have an i5-3210 and have the exact same problem both the dx9 and dx11 .exe only use core 0 and 2 and I have to change it every time I launch the game, in order to play smoothly. I really don't get it.

Also I still get some eventual lag when running DX11 version but since my graphics card isn't that great(HD7670m, is a laptop) dx9 is good enough.

Yep - this issue affects all hyperthreaded dual-cores, mobile and desktop. The stuttering isn't noticeable on the first level because it's not very CPU-heavy, but definitely noticeable in the SMI area of the Paladin (basically the game's menu).

Ubi Support has forwarded the issue to the dev team, but has no more information at this time. And today's patch doesn't include a fix for the CPU-Affinity issue. Still have to change to All Cores in Task Manager every time a new area loads.
