Chrome Is Ruining Your Windows Laptop Battery

Windows users who prefer Google's Chrome web browser are inadvertently ruining their computer batteries. The problem lies in what's called a "system clock tick rate."By default, a Windows PC tick rate is set to 15.625 milliseconds, meaning the processor "wakes up" and looks for work to do about 64 times per second. But running Chrome resets the tick rate to 1 millisecond — the processor is now up and looking for work 1,000 times per second. According to Microsoft, such a drastic change in system clock tick rate can increase power demands by up to 25%. Which damages the battery life of you laptop
