I was just wondering if MWO will use all 8 cores if they are available. Some sites say ,"Up to 8 CPU-Cores can be used" and I'm wondering how it would impact the performance of the game.

Sites I've been reading it on are :

Just wondering if I need to install this on my server with 8 cores

CryENGINE 3 can utilize up to eight cores, however the core programming only utilizes four cores well.
Beyond a quad core any returns are only small by all Crysis 2 benchmarks. It is likely safe to assume the same for MWO.

Interesting if the CryENGINE 3 can use enough from 8 cores but we do know from the MWO devs that there is a performance jump from 2 cores to a 4 core cpu with MWO.

what the heck will MWO need 8 cores for? will my mech be running folding@home in the background?
