>> Download Ultimate Performance Installer (v0.0.1.0) Microsoft announced the Ultimate Performance power plan to be part of Windows 10 for Workstations at version 1803 and above. This new plan disables core parking and CPU frequency scaling on AC power – just like our years old Bitsum Highest Performance power plan. For those that want the original Ultimate […]

Virtual memory ‘trimmers’ or RAM ‘cleaners’, whatever you want to call them, they’ve been a staple in the industry since the days of NT4. Almost all of these apps are best avoided! Most operate on the incorrect premise that you want more ‘free’ RAM. In fact, RAM should be as occupied as possible with commonly […]

Please do not forget to check the ProBalance Options. I designed it to be as safe and conservative as possible, thus for some multimedia users you may need to uncheck the following: Ignore the foreground process Do not act on processes of non-normal priority These may inhibit the full might of ProBalance coming down on […]

I am a little annoyed by SEO today. A lesser quality app than ParkControl and incorrect guidance are found in search results. They bring the user to a tool that does a brute-force search of the registry to change the applicable CPU power subsystem options, and then often mandate a reboot afterwards. Any site with fake ‘download […]

This is an except from our page here. What about Foreground Boosting (NOT what ProBalance does)? Foreground boosting is a common scheme used by some snake-oil software. Do not be fooled! The foreground process is that which has the keyboard and mouse focus. This means there is only ever one foreground process at a time, […]

Symmetric Multi-Threading (SMT), also known as Hyper-Threading, exposes two logical CPU cores for every physical CPU core. It does this by sharing computational units of the physical CPU core between the two virtual CPU cores. If neither of the paired cores needs to use the same CPU resources, then they can run simultaneously. This allows […]

Are you a Process Lasso user who really only uses the famous ProBalance algorithm? If so, you should consider the much cheaper (and more free) CPUBalance. It is now an either/or scenario, because Process Lasso contains all of CPUBalance functionality, so if you need Process Lasso, then you don’t need CPUBalance. In any event, for […]
