Relevance of Number of Processor cores?

Does the game take advantage of the number of cores on the Processor and if so would the number of cores effect game calculation time?

No but a better CPU speed and graphics card will probably help.

That surprises me now - WitE is nibbling on the graphic card? [&:]

Dont think so.

For what its worth, I run Wite in a pretty old G620 with an integrated GPU. It works fine.

Maybe getting a newer CPU would save me a few seconds on the AI turn resolution. Still, without knowing the code, i would bet there is almost no diference between running wite2 in a high clock frequency dual core like the G6400 and a hexa core like the 10400.

at which point, it is worth making the very strong point, WiTE2 is not #1 with some extra features, its a completely new game.

so at every level from how it impacts on your computer to how it plays, best advice is to set all your WiTE1 assumptions to one side [;)]
