    You obviously don`t understand that it is single core performance which counts in games and the only benefit you have when you upgrade from I5 6600k to I7 7700k is that you game is loading faster but FPS is equal if same multiplayer is used. ;)

    I do get it but how can I have same settings but better performance then ? Does pC2 use more than single core ?
    SMS guy say it does ! lol
    But I haven't noticed any loading time improvements .
    Also ROTTR and WD2 have seen significant increases .
    Also Cinebench single core at 4.6 went from 187 (6600k)to 201 (7700k).

    Well, Modern CPUs have several cores for executing several tasks simultaneously. However, not all software can take advantage of it. Some software can run on all cores. Some can run on 2, some on 4, and some only on 1.
    Games usually use between 2 and 4 cores and for example the I5 6600K has better single core performance than I7 3770k, meaning that software that runs on only 1 core runs faster on a I5 6600K than on an I7 3770k but the software that runs on 4 cores or less, will also run faster on a I5 6600K.

    i7 7700K is clocked much higher than i5 6600K, so the benefit you see might come from that alone (higher clocks = better single core performance).

    Their both at 4.6 in these tests as my çooler is crappy. I can do 4.8 but she gets a tad hot .
    6600k is fine at 4.6 (high 50's) but 7700k (4.8) is close to 80c but 60 at 4.6 , fine i know according to Intel but to hot for my liking.

    CPU core ratio and minimum CPU cache ratio must be also be the same to get equal performance 6600k vs 7700k.;)

    Okay. Well 6600k was at 3.9 to 4.2 on 7700k so theres that . Core clocks were the same though at 4.6 .
    As you can see Firestrike score increased across the board with thoses but 6600k build had higher GPU memory and didnt boost as high even though it was set tte same .

    Simply ask the modder to update the track to DX11 standards.

    What track is it? I can't recognize it, btw as you can see there are transparent threes as well, the track need a complete update.

    The new delta best needs to save your best times per car and track,not just for the session,it’s a minor gripe but needs to be this way

    Edit

    Pls add a all time best along with the session best delta

    Not necessarily, a delta time sit in qualifying is pretty useless for maintaining consistency in the race, doable but a pain to keep doing the maths :D

    If you experience strange AI behavior (cars spinning under blue flags), you may want to create a new Player.json.

    Cheers.
