'''General information'''
The game currently does not make use of multiple CPU cores. As a result, the game suffers from poor performance, especially on older hardware. This is planned to be corrected in the upcoming 8.0 patch. Resources to help you fix your performance issues can be found [http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/38260-help-on-fps-performance/ here].
