I haven't had to bother OC'ing this CPU yet. It's paired now with a 2080 ultra GPU. 16gbs DDR4 ram and 1tb SSD. I get a solid 60fps in all my games ( Wild Hunt, FO4, The Outer Worlds ) and I usually game @ 1440p because I cannot see a difference with 4k, but I sure can tell how much the fans...

I have been using WSE 2016 for a few years now to manage a simple home network of 4 windows 4 PC's with one WSE 2016 server. It worked fine over the past few years.

I have recently checked if my CPU heat sink was dusty so i took it out and i cleaned it. I also took out my CPU to look at it. After i put everything back in, I turned on my computer and went to the BIOS and it only detected 2 cores on my CPU. Would it be because i placed it incorrectly?

The debate on whats the best set-up, either quad or dual core has been looked at again by the people over at Toms Hardware and makes for interesting reading: Link Removed

Just like the title says. I installed Itunes today and NOT ONLY watched both cores go to 90 percent and vary sporadically between 25 and 50 - but then I checked task manager. There is a little asterisk (*32) next to Itunes.exe. What gives, apple?
