NotCPUCores
1.7.3.0Conveniently optimize game processes that are running on your system and enjoy maximum performance using this simple and straightforward tool
Note: Some antimalware applications might trigger alerts for NotCPUCores. However, our tests have shown that these are actually false positives, which means that it's safe to download and install the tool.
If you noticed that the video games you run on your computer do not run as smoothly as they used to, then you do not necessarily need to check out your bank account and inquire about purchasing new hardware. Thanks to applications such as NotCPUCores, you can end the unnecessary process and change their priorities so that the processor uses all its power for the graphic app you are running.
The utility does not require setup or configuration, so you can run it as soon as you download it to your computer. The app comes with a minimalistic, yet easy-to-navigate interface that consists of two main tabs, namely Optimize and One Time Tweak.
Functionality-wise, the tool is as simple to operate as it looks, meaning that you can type the process name and include the number of cores that you want the processor to dedicate for running your video game or graphic application.
As far as the potential mistakes you can make as a rookie with overclocking, you will be happy to learn that the application comes with a dedicated button that lets you restore the settings to default.
While in the Optimize tab, you can optimize the process associated with the game, in the One Time Tweak tab you can enable or disable the HPET. Then again, you should bear in mind that processing to shutting down this process can cause a considerable decrease in performance with some games. Nevertheless, if this is the case, then you can enable it back with just one click.
Regardless of the setting configuration that works best for the game you are playing, do not forget to set the process associated with it to High. As a side note, the app does not come with advanced features for the time being, but they are likely to appear in the future, as indicated in the UI.
In the eventuality that investing in new hardware is not an option or perhaps, you prefer to control the processes running in the background while you play video games, then perhaps NotCPUCores could come in handy.
