Is this normal cpu activity?
I've noticed that my cpu activity when idol and no programs open is quite different on my laptop compared to my desktop and i wondered whether this is normal for a laptop.
From the images, the desktop one shows literally nothing, it fluctuates from 0-1% when nothing is open.
However my laptop just keeps going up and down and fluctuates from like 0-20% all the bars randomly spike every now and again.
I have checked processes and startup programs and the laptop has no significant differences to my desktop both have the highest process as svchost which is normal. I've also done all windows updates etc.
Is it just something with laptops or should i be worred?
Desktop cpu - i7-920
laptop cpu - i7 2670qm
Thanks, any help is appreciated
