i have tons of different cords and adpaters for video/keyboards/mice/audio/usb/ect..
took a tiny desk and turned it into a high powered air filtered fan system that forces air through my laptop, i also have a smaller version (air filtered fan system) for travel.
also have about 20 older hdd's i have older OS's on that i can hook to my laptop and use.
along with 3 other laptops, 2 running linux and 1 stripped down to parts.
have a pile of older pc parts and older desktops that are collecting dust.
Not true at all. Not only does it not change (or atleast not even minorly change) the ratio of GPU/CPU usage, it doesn't change much at all. I went from super potato and then all the way to fantastic. The average gpu usage went up by about 10% from super potato to fantastic whilst CPU usage didnt change at all. I don't even know why the graphics settings there exist, because they don't really do anything.
edit: mistaken on cache files and temp files. me stoopid. still though, its not something you have to worry about since programs often delete the files anyway.
those gpu/cpu percentages do change, your just not doing it right.
also those temp files are placed there temporarily when your pc installed something or uses something, they arent needed afterwards and always add more new copies of the same thing, temp files dont cause crashing and they only waste ssd/hdd space which essentially can slow down ssd/hdd performance.
edit: windows doesnt delete temp files, unless win10 changed that, win 7 doesnt tho.
would you care to explain how to do it 'right'
Although true it's not something to worry about since programs will almost always delete them after being used. I thought your OP said cache files, which it did not.
Theres a setting that automatically deletes temp files. 'storage sense' is its name. im pretty sure its enabled by default too
windows, disk cleanup and other programs i have used never delete temp files, atleast the ones in %temp%, check it out, im betting you have quite alot as it builds up after time.
the graphics settings change percentage of use depending on how you mix and match the settings, i dont feel like explaining in depth, would be a book.
win10? setting? never heard or seen it, most likely not the temp files im talking about
Anyway, im surprised people dont notice CPU demand drops or increases based on settings. The number of people thinking they have bad performance because the GPU isn't at 100% is also really bad especially considering I've seen a good number of them thinking it has to be at 100%.
all of his comments were there before i went to sleep lol
ya, thats why i made this thread, too many of them asking why usage was low on gpu or cpu, heck i seen a video on how to get your cpu to run 100% on rust claiming you would get a huge performance increase, the vids solution was to disable half your cores lol.
i also mentioned in my OP that the example of percentages wasnt an exact math but just to show how most graphics setting in games worked and he pops in saying dumb stuff
np, just trying to help and also steer people in the right direction
i will keep adding more stuff i forgot to mention or gets brought up.
updated a little more to the OP on top of my quoted comment.
