About Cpu parked
Will unparking cores on an i7 4790k decrease the CPU's lifespan? Thread starter Thread starter tsuki2000 Start date Start date May 10, 2015 You are using an out of date browser.

The CPU isn't overclocked. I i7Baby May 10, 2015 No. They shouldn't be parked anyway. The CPU itself will downclock cores dependent on the load on it.

The CPU itself will downclock cores dependent on the load on it. So even if Windows is set to unpark cores, the CPU will still downclock them when not in use? Jul 25, 2012 44,080 2 106,960 #4 Yes.If use use Sensors from HWInfo and look at your core speeds you'll see they are up and down all the time at idle. Jun 16, 2014 2,116 1 6,460 #5 You can disable it in the bios however. The C-states are what you're looking for. Enabled, they turn down the cpu's multiplier and voltage when idle, to reduce power draw and heat emission. Disabled, that won't happen and you'll sit at 4.4ghz all the time.Not sure why you would want higher power consumption and a louder cooler by gaining nothing and potentially decreasing your cpus life span (maybe 30 instead of 32 years).There's nothing such as core parking for intel cpus anyway. You probably heard of it in amd fx related discussions. #6 Practically speaking on an i7, we don't need to play around with regedit, instead its better to overclock a cpu with a nice cooler on topand switch to high performance power mode. Will this work? Or should we try something else? Advertising Cookies Policies Privacy Term & Conditions Topics

Core parking is a new feature that Microsoft introduced in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Depending on the resource use of the operating system it may park one or multiple cores of a multi-core cpu to reduce the computer’s power consumption and thermal emissions. Once operations require more processing power, the parked cores are activated again to assist in the tasks. Especially mobile users benefit from core parking, while desktop users may benefit from it indirectly on their utility bill. For some multi-core processors, core parking is not enabled by default, and if you want to enable the feature you will be hard pressed to find any tools or information that allow you to do that. Users with AMD processors on the other hand may experience less than optimal processing powers while core parking is enabled on their system. You may remember that this was a issue some time ago. Microsoft has released a hotfix for AMD users that disables core parking on the system. Currently, the CPU Power Policies that are used by Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are not optimized for the dual core AMD Bulldozer module architecture. This architecture is found on AMD FX series, AMD Opteron 4200 Series, and AMD Opteron 6200 Series processors. This can result in decreased system performance with multithreaded workloads in lightly-threaded environments. You can find out if cpu cores are parked on your system in the Windows Resource Monitor.
