FSX blows as far as multi core support goes. Even with the patch installed, I only see 1, and half of a second core getting any usage when monitoring with task manager. Same goes for crysis. Love both games though.
I think if you had a "3.5" core, that would actually be slower than having a full blown triple, because of how windows balances out the load, some of the demand would be getting sent to the slower "4th" core.
Windows would be unaware it would be hardwired to the cpu and and accessed as needed for load sharing when the other cores became overloaded.
