junky-coretuner.jpgMost modern PCs ship with a dual-core or even quad-core CPU. However, your installed software will either just attempt to use all cores or not share the processing power effectively across your open applications. Ideally, if you were working with audio/video, you could assign a core to one tool and the other to a background process. Windows doesn't always manage this very effectively, which is why you should consider alternative software for managing your system cores.

Ashampoo Core Tune 1.01 is a tool designed for one purpose - to manage your CPU cores more effectively. You can simply allow the tool to auto-optimise your system or you can even boost one application by assigning all processing power to the app.
