core i3 2cores parked 2cores active.
I have an i3 Processor
i have a simple question
yesterday i have 4 CPU on my system, 2 cores are active the other 2 cores are parked
i was able to unpark the 2remaining cores so now, i have 4cores active
it bothers me that as a default, 2cores active, 2cores parked so maybe win7 programmers intentionally did park the 2cores for a reason... i want peace of mind so my questions are...
1. what are the advantages and the disadvantages of having 4cores active?
2. what are the advantages and the disadvantages of having 2cores active and 2cores parked?
