FX6100 Running 4 Cores Or 6 For Gaming

You would not get inherently better performance in gaming BUT you can reach a higher OC (less cores=less heat generated).

So yes you can get better gaming performance since games can not use all 6 cores anyway.

The most high end gaming nowadays only makes use of a maximum of 4 cores in a CPU. As a matter of fact, they only use a maximum of 8GB of RAM and 2GB of GDDR5 on a video card is futureproofing. To be quite honest, disabling some of the cores in the CPU is not really going to make a difference to gaming on your PC.

No, there are many games now that are threaded for over 4 cores. BF3, FacrCry3, Tomb Raider, Crysis 3 and more. Older games typically do not.

Bullshit... Not of those use more than 4 threads... In Crysis 3 it is semi-threaded for 4+, but only barely, and not at all for AMD modules.

No need for profanity, relax big guy, and you are also wrong. Plenty of information to read out there concerning it.

Now to better things, for the OP. Battlefield 3 is the most efficient game for over 4 core use, I have tested all modules in my 8350 myself and it uses all 8, I also notice it only uses 4 cores during none multi-player gameplay. Something to take into consideration. Future content will also likely be highly threaded.
