- Thanks to this, we learned that running the technique of simultaneous multithreading (SMT) in processors with up to 8 cores will be beneficial from the point of view of the game, while in the case of devices with 12 cores and more, it is better for this option to remain disabled.
- Pierscinski also advised laptop s to check the power management options, which are set to restrictive limits by default.
- Finally, it is worth mentioning that running the stability checker should only be done for testing purposes. The developer itted that the aforementioned Cinebench is a resource-intensive application, so it's better for it to remain turned off during regular gaming.
