CPU usage problems

i have had allways problems on my PC when running ESO in crowded situations like pvp sieges the reason is the usage of my CPU by the ESO engine. if i do not deny the usage of the CPU 0 it is the only core used by ESO.
e.g.

the problem on my side in other games when one core is used to its fullest it starts outsourcing to the other cores, ESO somehow does not leading to horrible stuttering gameplay.

when i use the taskamanager to deny the first core to ESO the game miracly is spread over the 3 remaining cores playing much more fluently.

as i´m from lazy town ;) is it possible to automatically "disable" cpu0 when ever i start ESO without having to open the taskmanager and do it manually?

    Disable CPU0 for ESO ?

    Will have to try this for myself.

    Nice workaround, :)

    Also setting ESO High priority helps

    Interesting, I may have to try this later.

    Would be great if we didn't HAVE to use workarounds to play the game smoothly though!!!

    Nice; Makes sense. Normally cpu0 has a lot of system processes pinned to it, so forcing eso off probably helps in that regard.

    Do you know what happens if you deny it on any of the logical cores and only keep it pinned on the physical? i.e. it looks like you have a 2-core CPU with Hyper Threading on, or a 4-core CPU with it off. If HT is off, ignore me. ;)
