And CPU-scaling beyond 4 cores is simply a non-issue in games that are bottle-necked by the GPU, such as Metro: Last Light. The extra CPU cores will not increase performance, no matter how many they are.

Which is exactly why such support is aimed at people with the highest end GPUs (or particular for this case, SLI). This has always been the case however, gaming performance will generally depend on the GPU.

Extra cores will everntually make a difference, but I don't expect a huge increase from the CPU for Last Light. It's the GPU support that caught my attention (won't know if it's "laughable PR talk" until the tech heads disect it). So it's pointless to assume either way.

Yeah. But when are you going to build that new comp?
