Thanks... it really might be core parking. Just watched the video of Mark Russinovich, and it says that Windows 7 has support for 256 processors (and I have a measly Eye Rolling, and Core Parking even knows which cores are on the same die so that it can power down the entire socket.. In short, I am now sure Win7 does a great job running on my Core i7 Smiley
if I remember correctly all 4 cores of the i7 are on the same die, comparing to the Core 2 of which 2 or 4 cores (of the 4, 8 cores respectively) are on separate dies?
