Unpark CPU cores for more performance.

Yes some people need to, I had 3 parked cores in Windows 8.1. No harm in checking.
It shouldn't need it, given 8/8.1 have a complete core handling rewrite so your issue must have been specific to X99 (another one lol).

I have been having many a problem with games lagging every so often due to CPU spikes! Metro 2033 Redux, BF4, Dying light to name but a few!
I ran the un-park CPU App, un-parked 3 cores, restarted and wow!, stutter has disappeared instantly! Absolutely amazed! boy is windows poor at managing the CPU, for energy efficiency reasons!
Speed step, etc. is still down clocking CPU by means of lowering the CPU multiplier, when browsing, etc. My max clock of 4.2GHz still kicks in for heavy applications or games - Result!
What a find Boomstick777, I tip my hat to you sir! Every game now buttery smooth with increased frame rates! It almost compares to a 5GHz OC!
I take it this should work on any multi-core CPU? for instance i5?

No use the tool from here then extract and run it.
It makes changes to the registry so after a restart cores will be un-parked. No real need to park them again is there? The app allows you to if you wish though!
