Turbo boost switcher windows 105/2/2024 ![]() The CPU utilization never goes higher than 40% while Windows always use more than 60%.Īs you can see both CPU&GPU temperature is very low On Windows, It's around 60~70%įor example, running League of Legends with Wine & Lutris. It's able to reach 1.4GHz at P0 state but the utilization is very low at 20%. The low performance CPU also cause GTX1060 bottleneck. I suspect it's the iGPU utillizing all the power causing the CPU unable to boost. Reddit - I upgrade my Surface Book 2 by adding a fan and copper HeatPipe to solve thermal throttle issue I've verified it's not a hardware problem, at least Windows 11 can run stabely at 3.5GHz on load without thermal throttle.Īs I've modified my Surface Book 2 which nolonger has thermal issue. On spec, it should be able to boost up to 4.2GHz. ( I checked cpuinfo, turbostat, intel_pstate, cpupower, they all gave me same value) It stays around 1.5~1.7GHz even at load like running Games, playing 4K vidoes on YouTube. The CPU frequecy never goes as higher as 2GHz. Multi-tasking and multi-threading belongs to the OS and software.Actually, this issue has been around since the first day I used linux ( Arch> Mint>Fedora).īut it'd not been affecting me on daily use, browser and programming is so smooth so I didn't brother to take a deep look at the problem. ![]() Turbo control belongs to the processor, not the OS. ![]() If it really is, that is more likely due to an out of date Intel Management Engine software being used in the Windows 10 installation. Windows own processor speed display is also inadequate for monitoring Turbo boost.Īlso, I am skeptical that Windows 10 is preventing Turbo 1.0 from working correctly. The latter will show all of your processor core speeds simultaneously in one display,as well as the core multipliers. If you want see what your processor cores are running at most of the time, use IXTU or HWiNFO64. When all the cores in a processor are at high load, they will then all operate at the base clock speed of that processor, without any Turbo boost. Two processor cores can run at one or two "bins" down from the maximum Turbo frequency. Normally only one of the processor cores is allowed to operate at the maximum Turbo frequency. ![]() Turbo boost does not allow all the cores in a processor to run at the maximum Turbo boost frequency at the same time. This applies to non-over clocked processors only. CPU-Z displays one CPU/Core frequency, which is inadequate for monitoring Turbo boost. Personally, I would never use CPU-Z as a monitoring tool for checking Turbo boost. The i7-975 used by the OP uses Intel Turbo Boost Technology 1.0, and of course an earlier chipset. Starting with the 2nd Generation Intel processors, aka Sandy Bridge processors, Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 began being used, instead of Turbo Boost 1.0. Given what has been reported here, it seems to me that Intel processors with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 1.0, are the ones that may not have Turbo boost working, when used with Windows 10. I think you need to be more specific here, since the Intel 7 series chipsets can support both 2nd Generation (Sandy Bridge) and 3rd Generation (Ivy Bridge) Mainstream processors.The Intel 6 series chipsets can work with both the 2nd Generation (Sandy Bridge) and 3rd Generation (Ivy Bridge) Mainstream processors.
