An 8700k has 12 threads. If the game was only capable of using 4 threads effectively, I would expect to see something like 1 thread at 100%, and the other 11 threads at 300/11 = 27%.
If all your threads are sitting at 40-60% you're using more than 4 threads worth of execution... (if all 12 threads were at 50% that would be 6 threads worth).
So, by the numbers you are giving, yes.
- vbezhenar 7y agoUsually operating system rotates threads between cores, so while you might see 60% on every core on average, on a given snapshop there will be 1-2 cores active at 100% while rest idle. Remember that CPU can't really work at 60%, core either works at 100% or sleeps.
