akaM2 November 2, 2006 Share akaM2 Member November 2, 2006 Half-Life 2: Episode Two will be out at the beginning of next year. Expect the multi-threading update to the Source engine to hit before that. We will be looking further at the Source multi-threading benchmarks over the coming weeks.

stutters November 7, 2006 Share stutters GC Alumni November 7, 2006 But WAIT! there's more: From the article: ----- Deadlocks, livelocks, and race conditions, oh my! On the first day of November, a group of technology journalists were invited to a special press event held at Valve's headquarters in Bellevue, Washington. There, we were treated to an unveiling of the company's new programming strategy, which has been completely realigned around supporting multiple CPU cores. Valve is planning on more than just supporting them. It wants to make the absolute maximum use of the extra power to deliver more than just extra frames per second, but also a more immersive gaming experience. ----- http://arstechnica.com/articles/paedia/cpu...e-multicore.ars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
