I found the problem. 

 

Core Parking.

 

In power schemes if I select High Performance I get 2 cores out of 6. In Balanced I get 4 out of 6. I struggled to disable core parking with all the utilities out there and reg keys and it all failed until I forcefully disabled it in BIOS. I have a Asus motherboard and under Core Activation I was able to set them to manual instead of Auto.

 

It did the trick. No more audio distortion in Youtube gawd daym html5 player because core one is handling the whole computer. To be noted I have a 24bit Audigy that is working A1 on this computer. 

 

In conclusion Microsoft really want to impose core parking so they did something different from previous Windows so we cant toy with that anymore. I'm not against it but now its broken for some of us. (Google "disable core parking"). 

 

Note: If any of you want to know if you have parked cores its in Resource Monitor under CPU that you can see in real time the cpu states.

Please use the insider app to report so they can fix it.

 

My APU when idle still uses 40% - 50% CPU

 

reported it.

Done

 

 

And as a follow up my computer is running very well since yesterday. Idle cpu usage is less than 1%. Power consumption (according to my UPS) is just like before I try Win 10. There are a whole lot of bugs everywhere in this Windows but at least my cpu is doing alright.

Was is always ok in W10TP or Fixed in recent build?

 

Tried the first two TPs where the issue occured.

msconfig.exe boot advanced change the number of cpu's your os is using sorry but ive know that since windows started :p

That's not how that works ... And has nothing to do with core parking.

 

it is used for debugging for different core/cpu requirements. Default uses all core/cpu's.

i5 680 CPU - dual core, 4 logical. Now I'm seeing only half my cores in the Windows 10 task manager (2 logical). Device manager shows all 4. This was not the case the last time I checked and I didn't make any changes. . I think there is a nasty bug in the latest Windows 10 update. 

 

Anyone else seeing this?

SOLVED - Windows 10 by default (which I think was set during some MS update a few months back) has the "Number of processors" for boot check box checked which, depending on the number of processors selected, will boot only that number of processors. The fix is to uncheck this check box. System Configuration --> Boot --> Advanced Options --> uncheck "Number of processors" and also uncheck "Maximum Memory" (not sure why anyone would want to limit the memory). Click OK and reboot. System should come up with correct number of logical processors (AMD cores or Intel Hyperthreads).

Lol, you're making ###### up or running some bugged out version of your OS. This is not necessary at all.

I didn't have to tweak ###### for my system to run like a mother ######er.

 

Rolling my eyes at your post. :/

    • Chinese? It sounds extremely dangerous. I’ll reconsider buying a Meta Quest 3.
    • - What's your salary? Is it more than $100k a year? - Nah, it's $100 mil a year.
    • Compared to my ear buds which are the size of a matchbox, cover a much broader frequency range, and work everywhere without setup? Yeah, still not buying this as a replacement.
    • Meta's Superintelligence team staffed by 50% Chinese talent, 40% ex-OpenAI by Hamid Ganji Mark Zuckerberg's latest big bet at Meta involves building a team of the best AI superstars in the market to lead the so-called Superintelligence Labs. The goal of this team is to develop AI models that will ultimately lead to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). AGI refers to an AI model with capabilities comparable to, or even beyond, those of the human brain. Achieving human-level cognitive abilities with an AI model requires substantial investments, as well as hiring the best talent to build such a system. That's why Meta is throwing hundreds of millions of dollars at AI researchers from OpenAI, Apple, and other companies to recruit them for its Superintelligence team. A user on X has now shared a spreadsheet that provides us with some unique insights into Meta's Superintelligence team and the origins of its 44 employees. The leaker claims this information comes from an anonymous Meta employee. The listing claims that 50 percent of the staff at the Superintelligence team are from China, which demonstrates the significant role of Chinese or Chinese-origin researchers in Met's AI efforts. Additionally, 75 percent of these staff hold PhDs, and 70 percent of them work as researchers. Interestingly, 40 percent of the staff are ex-OpenAI employees whom Mark Zuckerberg poached from the maker of ChatGPT. Additionally, 20 percent of Meta's Superintelligence team members come from Google DeepMind, and another 15 percent come from Scale AI, a startup that Meta recently acquired in a $15 billion deal. Another interesting point is that 75 percent of the Superintelligence team are first-generation immigrants. The leaker claims that each of these employees is now earning between $10 million and $100 million per year, although Meta still needs to confirm these substantial figures. However, it has already been reported that Meta is offering up to $100 million in signup bonuses to poach the best AI talent from OpenAI and other rivals. The revelation that half of Meta's Superintelligence team consists of Chinese nationals could trigger concerns within the Trump administration and Congress.
    • From a quick Google it seems 6GHz is optional on 802.11be. Ubiquiti has one, Unifi U7 Lite.
