TuneUp Utilities 2013 power management issue

[worldchamp619]

Hello Friends!
I recently installed TuneUp Utilities 2013 on my system.
I noticed a new power saving feature in it which allows you to enable Economy Mode for the same.
However, i have realized that the CPU usage has gone up and is generally at approx. 10% as compared to 4% previously. But one thing to notice is that Commit Charge has decreased a lot, and does not go up more than 350M which used to be approx. 450M before.
So I wanted to know whether power consumption of a pc depends on CPU usage or Commit Charge? Or is there an issue with the software?
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

Well, the main problem is actually with the TuneUp Utilities 2013 software that you have installed. Generally it is not a problem with the Commit Charge. This software, which are usually free, lure people with many features that seems to be very appealing but later on when it is installed and used it actually degrades the computer usage in general.

I second what Viceman is saying, TuneUp Utilities has more than 30 optimization tools. TuneUp Utilities 2013 version incorporates a TuneUp Disk Cleaner in it which is a cleaning tool that is responsible for eliminating waste from Windows programs and data that are accumulated that usually slow down the pc. Besides disk cleaner, TuneUp Utilities 2013 is a complete browser cleaner, compatible with Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari and Firefox.
