		<blockquote>I mean, why those cores specifically? It makes no sense.</blockquote>cuz source engine performance in general makes no sense

usually tf2 has max usage on first core so 2nd one has more time to do sidework. I'm going by this logic

it goes up to 3 cores, after that tf2 just switches its usage between 4 cores without any gain in fps. So u can put hl2 to use last 3 cores and leave apps to default and in general this means they will be using only first core leaving 3 unused cores to tf2.]]></description>

you can use ventrilo, no fps drops there

Cant use ventrilo for obvious reasons. But I will try to change the affinity. I think youre on to something.]]></description>

		<blockquote>Hi,

So this thing has bugged me enough so I decided to ask the pro's about it. Whenever I play a TF2 game with mumble its drops about 10-15fps from my average fps. Say if I play badlands 6v6 and on mid in an intensive fight I get 60 fps, with mumble on I get about 40-45. I've asked my friends who play with me and they said that they have no problem with it, which is strange. Do any of you get the same problem ? If you do how do you deal with it?

    	    <description><![CDATA[I use win xp. When I play TF2 i only use less than 1gb of ram, so ram is not the problem. My drivers are updated as well.

The weird part of it is that my friend has a really bad pc and he plays at very low fps, but has no mumble problems..]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[what operating system you got?

if it's windows 7, windows 7 uses 2gb of ram usually, and you say you only got 2gb ram, so your comp is probably stuggling while running TF2. Same as if you have vista which only takes 1gb ram... can't remember what XP takes. Adding more ram could solve problems and it's relitively cheap these days... depending on how much you want obviously.

before upgrading anything though, try finding latest drivers for both your gfx card and directx, that could improve your fps slightly, but i'm guessing it's your ram, cos 2gb is a pretty low amount these days.

hmm, couldn't hurt to get sound drivers as well i suppose, as mumbles a sound based program.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[I have the exact same problem and I've been told there's no solution for this - it's just the nature of program. You can only try lowering the priority of it while running (its default one is high, set it to normal).]]></description>
