I suppose you are wondering wtf. Your system resources reserve 5 to 25% of CPU to operate your system services, there is a way to resolve this so your game or application when executed is using as much of that reserve as possible by creating a batch file for your application. Here is how to do it
start up your favorite text editor, I still use notepad why, because I love bill gates, I going to use bf1942 for an example. Type this: (cmd /c start/high bf1942.exe)without the brackets, save as, in this case bf1942.bat in the same directory as the game or application, now you can create a desktop shortcut for the batch file and execute it.
What you are telling the system is to use high cpu power for the game. What happens in the background is the system takes away some of that resource when its needed, you really wont notice much at the start of a game but as things heat up in action you will see the difference in game play
