Multiprocessors to the point of ridiculous?

Tyrant - therein lies the rub for me. I don't run a VM at all, I don't multitask generally speaking, no video editing or code compiling either. It is kind of like having a Ferrari and never taking it out on a straight bit of highway at 2AM just to wind it out.

It is nice knowing the horsepower is there, but it would be better if games could make use of it. Multiprocessors have been around for a very long time now, and still few games use it to their advantage.
