Hi how can i gain more performance out of my machine?
My System:
Cpu: AMD FX-8350 @ 4ghz
Motherboard: AsRock 970 Extreme 4
Ram: 32GB DDR 3
Graphiccards: GT520(host),GTX790(VM1),GTX770(VM2)
Both Virtual Machines are installed on their own SSD + 1 HDD(for games)
Both have 8GB Ram and 4 "Cpu´s"
Both Virtual Machines should be used for gaming.

Unraid shows me this as Cpu Thread Parings:
Pair 1:cpu 0 / cpu 1
Pair 2:cpu 2 / cpu 3
Pair 3:cpu 4 / cpu 5
Pair 4:cpu 6 / cpu 7
But i didnt get it which one i should emulate/pin to which vm...?
