October 5, 20169 yr Steve, i made a bat file for ASN as per your instruction on page 21. It starts ASN but in task manager i can see still 8 threads are ticked. What may i possibly doing wrong? ASN.bat refers to ASN.exe and both are in same folder.
October 5, 20169 yr Commercial Member First before trying complex apps, set it to start Notepad.exe so that you know it works OK: I just tried this... start /B "" /affinity C "Notepad.exe" For example C started up Notepad on LPs 2 and 3 = 1100 binary look in task manager Set Affinity menu item Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com

October 6, 20169 yr Steve, Checked with notepad. LPs 2 and 3 visible ticked in Task Manager. What next?
October 6, 20169 yr Commercial Member OK you have shown the .bat works OK. Now try with your addons, those exe's that will be running along with the sim. For example I run my Saitek exes like that. However, if you have an app that handles affinity by its own setting (P3D is an obvious one) let it use it. Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
October 6, 20169 yr Ok, will try it soon. Should all the other .exe apps run F8 (248) AM if i set P3D for AM=85?
October 6, 20169 yr Commercial Member Hi 4 core HT enabled try 01,01,01,01 = 85 = sim AM x0,x0,00,00 = LPs 5 & 7 = Hex A0 addons Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
October 7, 20169 yr Works fine. I have ASN now on LPs 5 & 7. Thanks! Is the effectivness of AM 85 better over 116 only if there are no addons running on Core zero at all? What i mean is if i set P3D for 85, ASN for 160 (hex A0) but leave EZCA as it is, will the 85 effectivness be compromised and 116 should be used instead?
October 10, 20169 yr Hi guys, just a stupid question. Im out for a CPU upgrade. My current CPU is an oc´ed 5820K @ 4.5GHz HT on and AM=340. I have good results. Now that the 6700k and 6800k comes with reasonable prices would there be a benefit to make an upgrade? I would prefer an 6 core CPU cause of lots of backround apps. Thanks in advance!

October 10, 20169 yr My current system had a 5820k 6 core processor . I helped a Fs friend with a 6800 6 core processor. We have identical configs and also the same performance... 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0

Maybe, depends on a few things other than the amount of CPU throughput it uses, but more or less correct. Only way to find out is to try things out! Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
October 10, 20169 yr Hi Steve If I use 116 on a 3770k 4.7Ghz should I assign AS16 & VPilot to Core 0 (LP 0 & 1) and others? Is it true AS16 only needs two cores? I am testing 85 and 116 with FFTF on, medium settings... 85 seems that little smoother at present but more to be tested Many thanks for your research along with everyone else's Russ
October 10, 20169 yr Commercial Member They'll all run on just one core, those type of apps. However, utilising two logical processors can be almost essential on a good sim PC since there's networking and disk I/O, so it can avoid situations whereby threads have to wait unnecessarily. As long as two LPs are used it's going to do well. Can use more if you have them but no need to spread it further. Wait till you got a ten core... hehe 85 uses four cores, 116 uses three, so in the end four should win, but with three (116) you have to cram all your addons onto one core (two LPs in HT mode - handy).

October 11, 20169 yr Commercial Member ...if you use three cores for the sim and one for all the addons, you're not using up CPU time on the cores running the sim, with four you have to put the addons on cores hosting sim processes. With four core use (AM=85) use two LPs from cores 2 & 3: 01,01,01,01=85 X0,X0,00,00=5,7 since the threads on those cores take seconds to complete, the impact there is least. You can see you got two types of setup to try. The outcome depends on weight of addons but also the way the hardware works, type of GPU etc.. more examples... Four core non HT use: 1111=no AM (can use 0 or 15) XX00=2,3 Six core 00,01,01,01,01,00=340 XX,00,00,00,00,00=10,11 011110=30 XXx000=6,7,5 and 116 01,11,01,00=116 00,00,00,XX=0,1 Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
