Question

This is not based on homework but I have a question. I am currently using a gtx 960 with a 6 core amd processor. Does anyone know the average cpu usage for running chrome or something very light? I am worried about cryptoware. I currently go anywhere from 6% all the way to 40% cpu usage at times.

Answer 1

Answer:

Chrome is a good browser, however, if you run a lot of tabs, then you need to follow few tips to ensure it does not kill your computer while your PC is keyed to provide the best performance.

Firefox does not show this vulnerability. However, it's understandable that you do not ditch the chrome altogether, as it is quite well integrated with our phone (gtx in this case). Hence, let’s find a way.

We can use the Great suspender extension. You need to check whether you are making use of these tabs in chrome and if they continue consuming the resources. Its, however, hard to find whether to sleep or stop resource consumption.

The Great suspender extension can do this for us, however. It will help you to set the tab to sleep such that they do not ditch your Smartphone, while you are doing something else.
