Because Im sick and tired of getting lapses of horrible frames running on medium settings, such as when flying over a forest in the mountains with alot of clouds, I cant hold 25fps, it gets into the teens sometimes, this isnt with the pmdg 747, its with a carenado stationair. This is with cloud draw at 80nm, dense scenery, low 2x water, no traffic, 60 mesh complexity, and light bloom off. So if a quad core would increase performance that would be great, money is not an object, I just want 25 or more with the above settings no matter what.
