Hi. Today playing Skyrim I just realized that one of the "fourth" cores is always at 0%. I got an i3-3140 and a HD5850 so the GPU charge is always high. When I checked the charge of the cores I realized that 3 of the cores are always high but the fourth core is always at 0%, sometimes at 6%, is this normal?

It is normal. maybe skyrim is using only 3 cores( btw i3 has 2 physical cores and 2 hyperthreaded cores) and so the 4th core is unused. run some cpu intensive task and check the cores.
