not so bad) this a top PC.
just now i playing Risen 3 and count on all 8 cores. but this game does not need a lot of resources. But will soon be more demanding games and I would like more intelligently customize the program. At the very least disable 2 cores and I will hope for balancing.
thanks.

Actually, automated affinity and prioritization gets a mention on these forums wrt to a -free- tool called process lasso. You can force with that process manager to let all boinc apps by exact name go to for instance cores 2-7 and your games or whatever to 0-1. Then set boinc to 75 percent of processors, so it will leave 2 of 8 free. Exclusive app configuration option of boinc will pause the agent entirely as long as those exclusive apps are loaded, as in forget about exiting and boinc will never resume.
