There is no hard software to help you upgrade Hyper-Threading for free.

Hyper-Threading (HT) is a feature of some Intel P4 processors and Pentium D. This technology can significantly improve the multitasking of computers. Processing power in parallel. However, the CPU used by most people does not have this feature, and there is no plan to upgrade the hardware in the near future.

Recently, I tried a process called Process Tamer, which can implement the similar function of Hyper-Threading Technology, which automatically allocates CPU time according to the running condition of the program. So, what problems can this software solve? Take a look at the following typical example:

1 When using QQ/MSN simultaneous multi-person video, other operations performed by the system become extremely slow.

2 When opening a web page containing more pictures, Flash, and video, the IE interface cannot be automatically refreshed, and other programs are also suspended.

After downloading and installing this software [Click to download], a balance icon appears in the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen, so Process Tamer will automatically balance the CPU usage of each process and improve the multitasking room. The speed of the switch.

Because Process Tamer's automatic adjustment mechanism may cause some problems, such as automatically reducing the Nero process priority of the recording operation when the CPU usage is high, it is possible to "fly" the disk, so you also need to manually Change some settings.

Step 1: Right click on the Process Tamer icon in the system tray and select “Configure” to open the configuration panel.

Step 2: In the pop-up window, switch to the "Processes" tab, and the list below it shows the currently running process (the CPU usage below 1% is not displayed by default) , find the process that needs to be changed, in this case select nero.exe, select "Ignore" in the drop-down list of its "Explicit Rule" column, click "OK" (see figure).


The currently running process
Tip: Remove the "Hide<1%CPU" (hide CPU usage <1% process) check in the configuration interface to display all process.
Principles and Mistakes
Many articles have brought this software myth (including some big media articles), in fact, its role can only be said to use software to improve the use of multitasking, with real hardware-based Hyper-threading technology is different. Some articles say "I highly recommend you to use this software for Celeron D processor users", which is a bit "pseudo-science". //This article comes from the computer software and hardware application network www.45it.com
Process Tamer realizes the multi-task speed optimization principle: when the system runs high CPU load, reduce the priority of the process that takes up the most CPU time, improve those The priority of the process that is delayed by other processes to seize CPU time, which can reduce the probability of suspended animation in the system. After testing, it was found that the system did not start a new service when running Process Tamer, so it was judged that the program was running at the application layer, not the system service layer, that is, the software's own priority switching function was also affected. The impact of system speed.
