Browsers, Media Programs, anything and every thing. I missed that suffix, the problem with that is it is a multitude of programs. Some times it is my browser, which I am forced to use to Torch atm as my other computer (that one is older then this one, it can't even run a modern video file in the nicest of environments) isn't with me atm and my K-Meleon install isn't how I want it, and can't copy a new version. When I run that program I never have a spike from my browser, no I/O issues, no memory issues.
Then I have KMplayer in the background which can cause it, it's an issue of multi-tasking. And some background service/command being executed let it be a refresh rate, update protocol, or what not. My computer can't do that it can only go ok you do this do that and nothing else or you'll have a bad time.
And I want to start working on developing Music Videos, Albums, Software/Web Development, Database work, and publishing. However the computer can't handle it, memory is fine I know how to optimise the little I have to maximise performance however my CPU is at its ceiling. The only way I can see moving forward is a new laptop all together though my problem is price point. I can find the I7 think pad 2.2GHZ at 500 CDN, I5 thinkpad 2.5GHZ @ 269$. But I don't understand hardware this is my second laptop going the cheap route to do what I need to do and they just can't handle the work load I supply to them. Which is now costing me more. Thus I am asking what is the best recommendation, one is more modern CPU, one has better clock speed. What would work in my advantage as I am not a gamer, I just need it for professional purposes.
(as soon as I closed torch and switched to K-Meleon which actually works not sure why it was so engrained into my mind it didn't everything loads as if I just started the computer, is instantanous) I attached a normal look at my processes, DFX normally isn't running but not using my headphones.
