Hello all. I just was messing around with my brother's computer and I noticed that when I go to the task manager and click the performance tab it shows his last core always being used(looks like 100%). The cpu is an AMD Phenom x3 720. I had the 4th core unlocked and had been running ok. Well I thought maybe that core has finally gave out so I went back into the BIOS and put it back to default 3 core and it still does it. I see no processes running that would be using it. Any ideas??? I've never noticed that before. I did just replace his dead ASUS 6870 with my old Shappire HD7950 Vapor-X card, would that cause something like this? I know the CPU isn't the best for this video card but needed to do something. Thanks for any input!
