Fx-8120 cpu usage

[cheti]

Hey,
whenever i play a game (any game), it seems to focus on only one core and it just maxes out while other cores are 2-5%...

Whys that ?

Most likely because the game isn't multi-threaded.

all games dont use more than 4 cores
and some old games aren't multi-threaded.

but recently ive had lots of problems streaming.

Im using xsplit + dxtory and a week or two ago i could stream SMITE for example at 60fps.

Today i try to stream and it drops to 20-30fps and i havnt changed a single settings...

Whats the matter ?
