I think BO was written for at least 3 threads. If you have a dual core AMD I am pretty sure they can only do two threads, 1 each processing core. Meanwhile the Intel dual core from what I understand have hyperthreading which doubles the number of threads. So an Intel would have 4 threads allowing for processing to be streamlined, meanwhile an AMD would only have two which can make the game congested.

I think this is the problem because I have noticed most people who have problems have AMD dual cores. Remember just because you have a higher clock does not mean more performance. If a program was written for 4 threads then a two thread processor would lag significantly over a four+ thread processor.

Another thing to keep in mind is that COD gets big gains from processors. This is due to the bullet penetration engine it utilizes. So tons of bodies and objects falling and explodingand bullets going through walls can take its toll on a processor. Keep in mind those things are processor intensive effects not graphics intensive.

Press release :

Shattering its own day-one sales record, Activision Publishing, Inc. announced that Treyarch's highly-anticipated Call Of Duty : Black Ops has become the biggest entertainment launch ever with an estimated sell-through of approximately $360 million in North America and the United Kingdom alone in the first 24 hours of its release, as compared to last year's estimated day-one sell-through of $310 million for Call Of Duty : Modern Warfare 2 in North America and the United Kingdom, according to internal Activision estimates.

Call Of Duty : Black Ops marks the second year in a row that the Call of Duty franchise has set day one launch records across all forms of entertainment. In its first day on November 9, the blockbuster title sold through approximately 5.6 million copies in North America and the United Kingdom, as compared to 4.7 million copies for last year's Call Of Duty : Modern Warfare 2, according to internal Activision estimates.

Call Of Duty : Black Ops is one of the most critically acclaimed games of the year worldwide and was released with unprecedented retailer support and more than 12,000 midnight openings around the globe.

"There has never been another entertainment franchise that has set opening day records for two consecutive years and we are on track to outperform last year's five-day global sales record of $550 million," said Bobby Kotick, CEO, Activision Blizzard, Inc. "The game's success underscores the pop culture appeal of the brand. Call Of Duty : Black Ops is the finest game that Treyarch has ever made and raises the bar for online gameplay by delivering the deepest and most intense Call of Duty experience yet. The Call of Duty franchise has over 25 million players around the world that are engaged in billions of hours of online gameplay, and we are committed to supporting them with new content and features on a more frequent and regular basis."
