I discovered for the first time that the task manager has the ability to change a program's priority in the system. My question is, does this make a big difference? Will my selected app run faster than usual? Oh and is the "Realtime" setting higher than "High"? (Im using Windows 7 by the way.)
Sometimes, I don't think it makes a big difference, sometimes fixes things, sometimes it fucks thing up.
Ok, thanks for the share.
Priorities are listed in order so yes realtime is higher than high.
It fixed something for me. On my old PC I'd sometimes have a DVD playing while playing a game, but the DVD playing was all jittery because the game was starving it of CPU cycles. I bumped PowerDVD up a notch in the priority scale which took like 10fps off the game(still more than playable mind) but made the DVD playback smooth. Most of the time however I don't think you need it. Modern PCs are powerful enough to get by without too much faffing about like that.
