Is there a way to set CPU affinity or priority to an app in the dev preview at all? I checked task manager, but the feature seems to no longer be in there as it is in previous versions of Windows.

Press Ctrl-Shift-Esc then click on the details tab on the top right. You will be able to set the affinity by right clicking on the program. Give me a thumbs up if it works.

It's just changed locations a bit.

Instead of being under the Processes tab like in Win 7, it's now under the Details tab in Win 8. Right click there, and....

I see, thanks so much to both of you. :D

Reason I asked, is I was playing Warsow yesterday and the game initially only runs on 1 core and the sys_affinity command doesn't seem to work for me so I generally forced all 4 cores via affinity and raised priority to above normal.
