[QUOTE="TheInvsbleMan, post: 456690, member: 32183"] you were using chess... chess is all calculations, which means all processor work, haha alot of people actually use chess to benchmark processors... I'll give you a little experiment to do... go to your preferences in chess and slide the slider all the way to stronger, #1 watch your temp rise very high #2 watch the processor usage for chess go waaaayyy up #3 look how long it actually takes to make a move, you may think it loc ked up, but nope it is just thinking and in terms of computers thinking is all processor work. Most people think chess wouldn't use many resources and they just disregard it, but chess is a HUGE processor hog [/QUOTE]
