Do you guys know if all/some of these games will be optimized for Quad cores?

I'm going to assume Farcry 2 will....because Crysis is(atleast supposed to be, not sure if its showing a sizable increase over core 2 or not...but I know it was supposed to(drivers??)).

Those are pretty much the 4 games i'm building my new computer for in the coming 5-8 months. Really i'm most excited about Warhammer online and Farcry 2....so those are most important to me.


Thanks for any tips if u guys have heard anything...

Far Cry 2 has no association WHATSOEVER with the original Far Cry (other than name), CryTek or Crysis.

Yeah well but getting to the subject, while those games may be optimized for Quad-cores I doubt the difference will matter, games nowadays are limited by the GPU, even Crysis shows some small gains on quad cores but they all disappear once you crank the res higher than 1024x768.
