Title: 50% cpu usage after amd optimizer?
Post by: Sincraft on November 17, 2008, 08:37:41 PM

I'm wondering why it's taking so long to load textures, then I noticed in task manager that aceshigh.exe never exceeds 50% cpu usage.
I tried to redownload the patch from amd's website and followed the instructions on this site, but never exceed this value.

Any ideas?

If your running in Win98 mode thats what it will do. If not, its has something to do with hyperthreading, but I don't know enough to comment on that.

If your running a dual core machine, AH will only use 1 core from it - hence it being at 50% and never going above



If your not, thats me buggered then  :D
