I have a 64 bit processor but I notice that my version of SSDR is 32 bit.

Using V3.0.27.131. I did not install the S/W it came with v3. Maybe it is up to me to change or re-install it.

Run your monitor on a video card. Even 1080p uses a significant CPU. Don’t use Chrome if you can help it. Or minimize Chrome and other apps you can close or minimize. Just display them when you want them. Keep the DAX IQ channels closed (dark) unless you need them for CW Skimmer. You can reduce Memory use and CPU if you keep your drivers updated. I use a free version of Drive Booster that identifies when updates are available. I don’t use the paid version as it is mainly for gamers. I don’t use spots on SSDR as it can use a lot of CPU when there is a lot of activity, like a contest. Not so much of an issue with CW or SSB but digital puts a load on the CPU during decode cycle. When the band traffic is light I turn spots on. Your operating system will run some various maintenance task one a minute for about 10 seconds on my computer and bumps up CPU a little like 15%. I often monitor Task Manager as I am doing different things. Educational. 73 Bill W9JJB

Robby The only problem I have had is with digital modes not decoding some time slots. If at 100% you may hear some pops in the audio. I agree with you if working ok don’t get to concerned. Most of the processing is happening in the radio. Bill
