You should know and understand that 4095 = 111111111111 so it would be good for HT ON!!! With HT OFF 63 = 111111 would be the right equivalent. Luckily that this wrong AM is not hurting you. :wacko:

Have a look there http://www.gatwick-fsg.org.uk/affinitymask.aspx?SubMenuItem=hardware

Hi spirit thanks for the advice. do you will recommand FPS limiter unlimited

I use to run mine unlimited but did some research and I have my p3dv2 set at 30 FPS. Much smoother.

Without a doubt, HT ON, AM value of 4094, though 4095 maybe will work as well.  With either of these I recommend you open Task Manager and look at any other higher demand processes and deselect the 2nd virtual core so that those processes will not compete from attention from Core1 (the 2nd virtual core), but leaves the OS to allocate them to the other available 11 virtual cores.  This has been, far and away, the best improvement I've found since installing P3D on my hexacore box.   The value is in how well textures update.   Right now I have almost 100% fully updated textures always, out to the full LOD, of which mine is set up for maximum LOD.  I am able to overclock to the same level w/ only a tiny increase in voltage over HT off, but do need to be mindful of cooling.  I have serious cooling available if needed, which is the case now during the hot weather w/ HT on.

okay. i think HT off work better on my system but im  still doing some test

Yeah, I believe the prevailing wisdom at present is HT on for P3D.  Also, if you're streaming or running any other semi-processor loading software then the answer is HT on.  I run Affinity Mask at 84 on a 4770K, streaming, running Ailasoft EFB, Web Browser and even watching my own stream all at the same time and I'm not close to loading down the system.

 

You're absolutely correct, each system and running software is different, so in the end you'll have to figure what's best for you.

 

Take care.
