hi kajo6,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
Turbo Boost works if the operating system requests the highest performance state of the processor (this is when the CPU reaches 100% CPU Usage)
For Turbo Boost to work, you will need to:
1. Set your power settings set to high performance (click here for instructions)
2. Enable Turbo Boost in the BIOS (if the option is not listed, the motherboard has set this to ON and doesn't allow modification)
3. Have a Turbo Boost Monitor (like Intel Turbo Boost Monitor or Argus Monitor (highly recommended due to simplicity & features)).
Click here to see Turbo Boost in action.
Hope this helps.

  • With Turbo Boost, does it even pay to overclock for anything but games?

     I'm not a big gamer, but use the computer  for everything else.  Quite a bit of realtime stuff for business that can use the cpu.
     Considering Turbo boost seems to work quite well in kicking the mHz from 1500 to 3000 when needed, I wonder how much extra horsepower I'd actually see if I oclocked this i5 to say 3.4 mHz?  And would I be turning turbo boost OFF when overclocking?

    i think turbo boost increase the clock for your processor from 2.66 to 3.2 but it'll reach that 3.2 only if you use a single core of your processor.
    over-clockers usually disable turbo boost and then over-clock the processor manually to have a more consistent and stable system. also get better overall performance .

  • Turbo boost doesn't work

     Hello friends. I just formatted my laptop 3 days ago and my turbo boost doesn't work any more. It keeps at 2.50 gHz all the time. I can't play games properly etc. What should i do? Thank in advance. Sorry for my bad English :c 

    Try this: Go into Power Manager, switch to Advanced mode, and switch the CPU setting to Maximum Turbo on AC.
    Turbo stopped engaging for me a while back, and one of these things worked.

  • Core i7-2720QM on Macbook pro 2011: Turbo Boost doesn't work! It's possible?

    I test my core speed with MacCPUID that show real time cpu frequency. I try it in normal condition and running extreme application. Everytime my cpu frequency is something like 2.199 - 2.200 but never more than 2.200 ghz.
    So I have to think that Turbo bost is not active on macbook pro and all the things in apple website about this feature are false!
    Is it possibile? Who knows something more about this?
    Greetings,
    Stefano

    Yes, there is Turbo Boost active on all MacBook Pros. There is no real way to measure turbo boost unless you're in BootCamp, using Intel's Turbo Boost Monitor. The Intel website states that not all CPU measuring software will correctly display the turbo frequency because it's either not current, or doesn't support turbo boost. If you have BootCamp installed go ahead and search Intel Turbo Boost Widget. download, and install it, this will give you correct results. You can't really measure turbo in OS X.

  • W520 Turbo Boost works only after entering Setup (BIOS 1.34)

    Hi there,
    similar issue but not quite fitting the thread about Intel TB missing in Battery mode, I can reproduce the following BIOS/Windows bug:
    - boot the system without entering BIOS straight to Windows 7 : Intel Turbo Boost not working (i.e. frequency dynamically changes between 800 and 2500 Ghz)
    - boot the system, enter setup, press F10 and save settings (without changing anything), boot Windows: Turbo Boost works
    Is this a BIOS or a Windows problem? It is a workaround to get Turbo-Boost always, but quite inconvenient.
    Can someone with similar Turbo Boost problems perhaps check if this is a general issue and could be fixed by Lenovo in a new BIOS update?
    System: W520 i7-2860QM @2500 MHz, BIOS 1.34  (same problem on BIOS 1.26).

    Hi again,
    after spending an afternoon with an IBM service technician we isolated the problem. To make sure we switched boards and tested 4 bios version: 1.26, 1.32. 1.34 and 1.35.
    Problem can be reproduced and monitored with Intel Turbo Boost Monitor tool and/or CPU-Z.
    Turning
      BIOS CPU setting:  hyperthreading - off
    causes undefined behavior of the turbo boost settings. It works for some reboots. It seems to cause problems more often when the NVidia card is running (either through setting GPU to discrete or by using DisplayPort). Sometimes when taking out AC adapter and plugin back in it won't.All in all very random behavior, but 1 in 4 trials it won't work. Also, when the notebook was off for some time, turbo-boost never works on first boot (need to enter setup at least once, then it will work for some time and reboots).
    Symptoms:
    Whenever Turbo-Boost is not working, CPU goes only to 2.5 Ghz at max.regardless of energy plan settings.
    Switching Hyperthreading back on has (so far) solved the isse (both on AC and battery-without-GPU mode), tested successfully with BIOS 1.32, 1.34 and 1.35. Now we have turbo boost but slightly slower single-core simulationn performance. Not nice, but at least there is a workaround.
    Workaround so far (until Lenovo has fixed the BIOS): leave Hyperthreading turned on.
    (PS: The service issue was marked as "not solved" and will be send a level higher in Lenovo Support - let's see how this will be taken care of).

  • Qosmio X500-134 - Intel turbo boost issue

    Toshiba stated that Qosmio X500-134 with the standard clock speed of 1.73GHz with the intel processor can get a clock speed of 2.93GHz with intel turbo boost.
    I have downloaded and installed the intel turbo boost monitor widget while running loads of applications at once and still turbo boost does not start or work :S,
    There is no feature to enable this in the bios which I have the latest version 2.60,
    I would like help thanks.

    Hey,
    As Akuma wrote, Intel turbo boost will only be activated if its really necessary and the application requires more CPU power. Otherwise the notebook will still run with lower CPU speed.
    So test it with a high CPU usage application again!

    The reason it probably goes to 3.x GHz right away and then drops rather quickly to 2.4 GHz is most likely due to heat. 97C is getting close to the Tmax for the processor, and it's probably throttling back the CPU in order to keep it from being hurt.
    Most likely you need to open the notebook up and replace the heatsink compound on the CPU and GPU (89C is rather hot IMHO for the GPU).
    Or you can contact MSI and do an RMA.

    So you are saying that there is no another solution for this issue?

  • Permanently Disabling Turbo Boost

    I currently use the following command to disable Turbo Boost, and it works:
    echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo
    I would like this to be permanent, each time I boot this setting is lost. I've found plenty of articles online with how to disable this exactly as I have done above, but can't seem to find any information on how to make this "stick." There is no setting in my BIOS for disabling Turbo Boost, so I must rely on some sort of Arch tweak to keep it disabled. Is there a way to make this permanent?

    I've already "read the wiki" and neither of the two links posted above are relevant to my question. One of them even says that it may not work with "sys" devices. I've been researching this all day, and thought maybe someone here could help me. I should've known better.
    Sometimes I wonder what the point is in volunteering to answer questions in a forum, but only to make "RTFM" posts. If your heart is not in it, then why do it? This is very sad. My recommendation is to automate the process and write forum scripts to automatically post RTFM replies for you, it may save you guys a lot of time. I bet no one would even notice the replies were coming from bots.
    Anyway, I'm unsubscribing from this thread.

  • How does Intel Turbo Boost work?

    I have the i7-2620M CPU. How does turbo boost work on my Mac. And what is the max GHz speed for Turbo Boost 2.0 in 2011 MBPs?

    If you would like some more detailed information that amplifies Kappy's succinct but correct answer, please read this:
    http://news.cnet.com/8301-13512_3-10362882-23.html
    Though the article is several years old, the principles remain the same.
    Ciao.

  • How does the Turbo-boost works on the Intel i7?

    Just bought the new MBP Retina and would like to know how the Turbo Boost works in my processor. Is it a regular upgrade like buying a new processor or is it something I could menage at the settings and have it boosted up?
    Thanks,

    Intel's definition:
    Any of the following can set the upper limit of Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 on a given workload:
    Number of active cores
    Estimated current consumption
    Estimated power consumption
    Processor temperature
    When the processor is operating below these limits and the user's workload demands additional performance, the processor frequency will dynamically increase until the upper limit of frequency is reached. Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 has multiple algorithms operating in parallel to manage current, power, and temperature to maximize performance and energy efficiency. Note: Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows the processor to operate at a power level that is higher than its rated upper power limit (TDP) for short durations to maximize performance.

  • Does my mid 2011 macbook air have turbo boost?

    what is turbo boost and does my mac have it? all answers are appreciated
    thnx guys

    TurboBoost is an elevation of clock speed to help speed up certain tasks. It momentarily switches the processor to a single core running at a faster speed.  It does so in an effort to manage speed and energy efficiency.

    Yes, your CPU does have it.
