First off a multi-core is a CPU that has multiple CPU cores on the chip. Today you will find most CPUs are dual core which means you have one CPU chip but it has 2 independent CPUs on that chip so you get two CPUs. The technology has been around for a while (in tech years) but in order for you to take full advantage of it you need a program that knows how to feed information effectively to both cores. Secondly I have heard that there are stability issues with dual core support with TF2 so I say use at your own risk... in other words I will try it on my desktop which can explode in a fiery death without me caring but I won't try it on my laptop until Valve officially supports it.

I'm pretty sure we do. I'm not sure if this is just my imagination, but it seems I'm getting around a 10 FPS boost.

Since it's unsupported and beta, and may crash, I highly doubt that it's enabled on our servers. But anything is possible.
