How do I enable the SSE3 / SSE4.1 instruction set in Visual Studio 2008?

I tried to follow:

Project> Properties> Configuration Properties> C / C ++> Code Generation> Include Extended Instruction Set

But the only parameters I got were SSE or SSE2.

Thanks.

If you are serious about using SSE, then roll Microsoft's compiler and use a decent compiler. Intel ICC is probably the best choice. It has full support for SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2 and generates much better code.

Let me google what's for you



The first two links seem to answer your question. SSE3 and SSE4 will not be added. if you want to use then you can use built-in functions.
