Good day

I want to know how configure affinity mask with the new alder lake cpu 12900k. 

If steve is there...

Thanks

 

With W10 Affinitymask use 5592405  or  21845 and leave the other 8 cores active.

 

With W11 not needed.

You have 16 cores, 8 high performance cores that can do Hyperthreading and 8 normal cores which gives 24 threads with HT enabled. It's complicated to go into the affinity requirements other than your basic need is for the main P3D task of rendering to occupy a performance core on it's own, with HT enabled an AM would have to mask one of the virtual cores on that main task core to allow that. It would be a lot simpler to work with HT disabled and ignore the AM for now, that would give good performance.

Thanks SteveW, will try
