<br>Hello, I have a doubt regarding the use of soft-core. When the use of sc-power = 2 is more recommended than sc-power = 1?eef_______________________________________<br>Eudes Eterno <span class="il" style="background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 136); background-position: initial initial; ">Fileti</span><br>
