Not directly, no. Many customers like to push the usage of their machine beyond our limits, which are actually somewhat conservative. We aim for 40% but pushing it around 50-55% is likely OK.soja wrote:Doesn't that almost directly contradict what is posted here: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =70&t=5815Edge100x wrote:On an E3-1270v1, customers can generally run six 64-slot BF3 servers (384 slots). BF4 may be able to run around the same number, especially if DICE implements small additional optimizations. A v2 or v3 would also be a bit faster, though it's still not clear how much (the beta was short and players were spread out over so many servers from all the providers that we didn't get very good performance data beyond the first night).
BF3 servers also have a multithreaded option which was added after the posting of that guide which can help spread the usage onto another core.
Lastly usage varies and has changed a bit after all of the patches and DLC's.
