- Download the .exe installer or .zip file of the latest Release, install/extract and run it.
- If prompted, install the .NET 10 Runtime (the app will guide you) and run CPU Set Setter again.
- Open the Processes tab.
- Apply the "P-Cores" Core Mask to your open game.
- (Optional) Allocate your E-Cores to heavy background apps like OBS, iCue, webbrowsers, etc.
- Done - your choices are saved and auto-applied next time, as long as CPU Set Setter is running.
- (Optional) Set a hotkey combination in the Masks tab for some of the Core Mask to change/clear a program's Core Mask on the fly, so you can experiment quickly without having to even tab-out of your game.
- (Optional) Go to the Settings tab and enable "Start with Windows" to make CPU Set Setter start automatically when your computer starts.
Note
CPU Set Setter will auto-create some default Core Masks to start with, relevant to your CPU, for example: P-Cores, P-Cores no HT, E-Cores and All no HT.
If your Intel CPU does not have P- and E-cores, only the All no HT Mask will be automatically created.
