This makes it constantly around 50% for the game play time while the other is around 1-5%. I was wondering if only using one of the cores for a long period of time can cause any damage/problems.

When I built my computer I didn't pay that much attention but I thought the little no pin points prevented you from putting it in any way other then one. I got an AMD athlon 64 x2. Of course you can't flip it or rotate it - it won't fit or even if it will it will immediately burn. I was just kidding. [Laughing]
