CPU-Control is a utility with a free license that is equipped with precise tools for adjusting CPU operation. The main subject of tuning, which provides the functionality of the program, is the selection of the mode of use of cores in multi-core processors.
The utility is able to clearly allocate the resource of one core for the needs of cumbersome graphics editors and the potential of another for servicing resource-intensive anti-virus applications.
German developers of CPU-Control made sure that there is enough manual for the needs of users with different level of computer hardware knowledge. Reference materials are available on the official web-site of the program.
How CPU-Control Works
CPU-Control is designed to configure systems running on Windows platforms. Windows distributes the priority of access to hardware power among all the running processes at the moment of startup. This approach does not always justify the means, sometimes a point-by-point power allocation technique is required. CPU-Control helps when it is necessary to equally distribute processes across cores, which markedly increases the final performance of the system.
Main features of CPU-Control
- Multilingual interface (including English).
- Provides the possibility of using several variants of profile settings.
- Minimal size of the ready-to-use program.
- Designed to control the work of dual- and quad-core processors (user reviews confirm the correct work with more complex architecture - 6-8 cores).
