I play games with WCG running 100% all the time. WCG runs at low priority which means it only uses up to 100% of idle clocks. For instance, most games are single-threaded which means they only use 13.5% of the CPU. WCG, therefore, will use the other 86.5%. I can't tell it is working unless I open up task manager.
Video cards aren't so good with thread priority...
This is a huge discussion topic, really. Your PC will come to a crawl if the the threads that are using 100% of your processor power are at normal or above. Why does it cause problems? Because the OS runs at normal. Problems start arising when the OS gets bumped. Idle/Low priority means WCG can't cause that. The OS will beat WCG over the head if it tries. XD
That's...not english.
Thanks for the pics... to bad they are not pop ups..lol j/k Thank you for your interest in the thread. You are correct that is not english...
