11% is slightly less than 1/8, if you have an 8 core processor, or a 4 core with hyperthreading then you're using 100% of one core. Checking with Task Manager, or Resource Monitor will verify.

with tools provided by the maker of your motherboard ... mine does..
but not all boards will give you tweak options ... ;-)
I don't think that's a solution to his problem, nor one to yours. using 100% of a single processor core is still 100% of a single processor core. Enabling hyperthreading on his motherboard would simply push the problem into a smaller area, Rainmeter would still be using 100% of a single processor.
