Core unparking / force all cores active

What it does

Prevents Windows from parking idle CPU cores.

The honest verdict

Modern Windows + modern CPUs already manage this well; forcing it mostly costs heat and can slightly HURT boost clocks. Same myth family as disabling C-States.

How Compy treats it

Compy won't recommend it. If you're curious anyway: change one thing at a time, measure it on your own rig, and revert unless it's clearly better — that loop is exactly what Compy is built around.

The Compy Blackbook holds 174 graded entries like this one, judged against your hardware — and every change it does make is reversible, with the receipt to prove it.
