Affinity can be used to stop programs hogging resources and slowing down the computer, but personally I would instead use the priority settings and let the computer determine which core to use. If you are going to set a cpu affinity, before you assign it, you need to study how much cpu load your computer is using on your cores else you could assign your task to the busiest core and leave the other under utilised. Since the computer is constantly juggling the resources between the cores unless you intend to set affinity on every single process then just stick to adjusting priority. If rendering cripples your computer for any other use, just lower the priority, no need to mess with the cores - or buy a computer with more than 2 cores ;)

I use Wondershare and it keeps crashing so when I click set affinity it shows as CPU 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 and 11 all ticked I click them off and re click just 0 and 1 CPU to work only and Wondershare works fine but then after a while it crashes again and when I look at affinity all 1 -11 are reset as ticked again how can I stop this please?

Thank you very much! I wondered how my pc crashes during rendering videos, but i have a very good pc, but the problem was the program uses all my cores so my processor utilization was like on 99% in the Task Manager so my whole pc freezed, but now i render with like 50% of my cpu cores and it doesnt crash now! thank you very much :D

Hi! was wondering: how to know how many of the logical processors on a laptop like mine (8 logical processors) should i allocate to, for example, Chrome (230,000+ K memory usage) or Adobe CS/CC or any games or other software!?

This was a helpful video. Now I am trying to figure out how to write the batch file that launches my processor intensive app and set the affinity to two specific processor cores so I don't have to do this every time.

you do realize, in task manager, you can right click the combined cpu load monitor and show the individual threads, instead of having to open up resource monitor
