If like me you want all cores available at all times, especially on a 13900HX and seeing parked on 25+ logical processors is annoying. Also every now and then when running multiple apps and bouncing around some heavy users like Adobe PS and Premier, I notice this ever so slight hang, milliseconds but it is there, like a quick instant stop to the mouse cursor. I might be imagining it but I can only put it the cores being required. I will update this after a few days with the parking off.
Option 1 did not work in real time for me, and so i just used option 2 changing the Registry key and rebooting.
Enter the command below to completely disable CPU parking:
powercfg -setacvalueindex scheme_current sub_processor bc5038f7-23e0-4960-96da-33abaf5935ec 100
After changing the power scheme settings for CPU Parking as desired, you then want to make the changes active by running the command:
powercfg -setactive scheme_current
You should not have to reboot for these changes to take effect. They are immediate!
WARNING: Use Method 2 only if you are comfortable modifying the Windows Registry. Mistakes mad in modifting the registry can result in an inoperable system. Use at your own risk.
Method 2 – Modifying the Registry
- Open Regedit
- Find this key:- ” 0cc5b647-c1df-4637-891a-dec35c318583 “
- Within this key, there is a value called: ” ValueMax “
- This value represents the % number of cores the system will park – the default 100% ie: all Cores are potentially park-able
- Change the value from 64 to 0 so the ” ValueMin ” and ” ValueMax ” are both zero
- You will have to find the key a few times and repeat the process for each time it is found – the number of instances will depend on the number of power profiles in your system.
