My X2 runs certain games at abnormal speeds.

Some include

Madden 2005
Counterstrike (original)


anyone else with these problems?
 
do a search as there was a topic like this about 1-2 weeks ago..some have issues others dont....I think it is a OS issue, IMO...The thread scheduler in MS like most other things is F'd up...
 
I haven't installed those yet...I did notice one brief moment 3dmark2k1 did a test really fast, but that was just one test...
 
Some games like FarCry run abnormally on the X2's until you assign them a core affinity. Try starting the game, alt-tabbing to the desktop, ctrl-alt-del to bring up the task manager, find the exe under processes, right click on the processes, select "set Affinity", and then deselect one of the cores. From my experience there?s no benefit picking one core to run the game on over the other.

Unfortunately you will have to do this for every application that runs at abnormal speeds, but I haven't found too many that do.
