I just installed the graphic version of [email protected] and was wondering if running 1 core at 100% all the time and running the other at maybe 30% max for a few minutes now and again would cause any problems. You know, like a tire being worn badly on one side and the other being new would cause a pull in a car.
Don't worry about it, most operateing systems can dynamically switch tasks between cores as and when required. Running a program on one core exclusively wont affect its lifespan or performance.
