Fix for engine multithreading lag/stutter on intel chip

Yea this bug appeared again with this patch, there is a thread about it here and i also sent GGG my own report but still no info yet for any fixes beside the old tricks, so yea this one is on GGG to fix nothing else we can do beside waiting, hopefully they manage to fix it before the league start.

Their implementation of multithreading and many other stuff is clearly broken and probably will not ever get fixed. GGG's engine has way too many problems.

I tried it out and it works.

cstates disabled in powerplan:
cstates enabled in powerplan:

Tried PoE on latest Fedora Linux

CPU: 4790k
GPU: GTX 1080
RAM: 16GB


this worked amazingly on my i7 2600. when MT is enabled i got stuttering every 100ms or so. disabled c states and it's smooth as butter, wow what a performance improvement with MT enabled! ty for the link

Didn't solve my problem with PoE. I'm just going to BUMP this thread because I feel like it will resolve many problems for those who are experiencing similar problems.
