On top of this, it has to calculate, speed, course, depth, altitude and if this wasn't enough, with each movement made, the CPU has to calculate every single units doctrine to see if it will make a decision based on those doctrine files.

Needless to say, if all chucks along with TC set at 1, your CPU is in no hurry and can keep up with all of it without a hitch. Turn on the TC and you turn up the heat for the CPU, turn it really high and the CPU has some serious work to do and show you the results of that.

I run DW on an AMD 3800+ with 2Gb of ram and have not noticed a lot of performance boosting from it when cranking up the TC in a target rich enviroment.

Thanks
