thirdshift Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 So I've installed iatkos i4 and have been using it w/out a hiccup. Now after I installed Logic Studio and Ableton, I only see one side of the CPU meter working. I know the other core isn't doing it's thing because I'm also running AU plugins and it seems that the CPU is just running out of steam too soon. I open one instance of Native Instruments Massive and 3 other plugins (eq's,compressor and delay) and it's already using 90% of my cpu. Now I know some NI stuff is resource hungry but no way can it use both cores that much just from 4 plugins. Should I have installed the dual core kernel that I got in a package I acquired from here? I read through the Vostro mega thread and nothing in there helps out my situation. Everyone is claiming both cores to work so I'm not getting it here. I've also gotten some monitoring software but it says both cores are @ 50c even when they are heavily used. I'm guessing the software is reading it wrong. Dell Vostro 10.5.4 (vanilla) 1.4ghz core 2 duo 2gb 667mhz EDIT: NVM both cores are working. Just too much stress on the cpu not having a sound card to process audio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
