Also, if your running other apps while folding, using up cpu cycles, will cause frames to take longer in the same WU. ------------------------- Phenom II X6 1055T, Asus M4A89GTD Pro/USB3 Phenom II X4 945, Gigabyte MA785G-UD3H Zacate E-350, MSI E350IS -E45 http://classicplatforms.com

Stone_age Alpha Geek Posts: 2523 Joined: 03/16/2004	Yep, 100% and then I set the priority in the task manager from low, up to below normal, which seems to slow down other apps slightly without slowing down frames. Even slight tasks like IE will slow frames. ------------------------- Phenom II X6 1055T, Asus M4A89GTD Pro/USB3 Phenom II X4 945, Gigabyte MA785G-UD3H Zacate E-350, MSI E350IS -E45 http://classicplatforms.com

someone124 Senior Member Posts: 2213 Joined: 10/09/2004	i am not worried about losing performance, i am just worried about heat when my CPU is at 100% it is like 54C and when it is at 70% it is at like 48C i have issues with heat, even tho it is at stock speeds, with a arctic silver 5 and a heatsink rated for a 3200+ and mine is a 2400+ ------------------------- Got F@H?\|This is why we use AMD \| Proud Owner of a DFI board\| HUG ME!\| <img src="http://di
