ParkControl is a well-known software for Windows that allows users to adjust CPU core ranking and save power generation on their computers.
Purpose of core parking
This procedure is essential to manage the proper utilization of CPU cores and put them to sleep when the computer is not processing heavy duty tasks. In other words, users can reduce heat generation on their PCs and extend the maintenance of laptop power batteries and other components.
Tools
There is a large selection of necessary tools for adjusting core settings and configuring their performance. Users can set the CPU clock speed according to the system load, thus balancing power consumption. Moreover, it is possible to optimize frequency scaling parameters and customize the processors for certain tasks.
What makes ParkControl convenient is that you are able to create several profiles for managing CPU core parking settings. The program allows you to create frequency scaling options for each category of the applications you use on your computer. However, it is worth noting that unlike Armoury Create, this tool is developed for skilled professionals who know how to handle processor configuration aspects.
