What other processor? Defragging only works on hard drives. Can you give us a better, more clear explanation?

If your idling persay? Or just using single core apps. It supposed to just idle in low power mode IF CnQ is enabled. Thats my understanding. Now if its not enabled it will use less power then at full load. Your gonna find cpu core uses much less power sitting there then when working. Even without power saving tech. thats why the temps go up when its working, energy in (electrical power) -energy out (in form of heat).

if the task manager shows two graphs for cpu usage, then both cores are enabled.. the load is on both cores if u use multi threaded apps.. if u use single threaded apps, the load will be only on core0..
