OVERCLOCKING AND TURBO BOOST IN A I-7 4790K ENVY

Can I overclock my HP ENVY 810-430qe CTO 4790K and still expect turbo boost to function?

Grizzler, welcome to the forum.
From what I have read, once you manually overclock the processor you should actually disable Turbo-boost. It can affect the stability of your processor. This makes sense. Overclocking generates much more heat.

2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, featuring 8MB L3 cache and Turbo Boost speeds up to 3.60GHz.

Why the 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, featuring 8MB L3 cache and Turbo Boost speeds up to 3.60GHz.

The question is, is it worth the extra cost on the MacBookPro. Is the performance tht much better??
Thanks,

Experiment and conclusion on notorious Bios and turbo boost related issue.

Hi everyone,
Like everyone here, I suffered from the turbo boost issue and I decided to find a practical way to solve this problem,so .I conducted some experiments trying to find out the relationship between power strategy, graphic type, booting power source and the CPU frequency.. Here are my results:
Variable: Power strategy for AC/BAT: Max/Balanced, Max/Max(didn't try for balanced AC power strategy)
Graphic type: Integrated, discrete and Nvidia Optimus
power source when the machine booted(BAT,AC)
Testing model: W520 42762QU i7-2720QM Quodro2000M 16G Crucial M4 128G, 500G HDD, BIOS1.30
Testing programs: Intel Turbo Boost programs and CPU-Z

Notice the '800-2400' state, it is a special situation when CPU-Z occationally gives me a speed of approx 2400 when I tried some head-load programs, which lasted about few seconds and the frequencies went back to 800 or 1500(in most cases, 800) when I closed the program.
Conclution:
1. power stratagy will not influnce the cpu frequency.
2. booting power source and graphic types will do.
3. I'm sick and tired of pluging and unpluggin my W520.
4. I'm not a fan of Nvidia Optimus.
5. Lenovo did a terrible job on this issue.
6. I expect a same result for Bios 1.26
Practical solutions:
1.When you need a powerful W520, use Discrete graphic and plug your AC while booting.
2, For a longer battery life, use integrated graphic, and if you wan't to plug the AC, please turn off your machine and boot again.(not rebooting!)
Thank you for reading my post and sorry for my bad english

SomeOtherGuy:
Thanks very much for keeping us all informed about the "work in progress" on the BIOS and the Turbo-thing. That is thoughtful of you and will (hopefully) cut down on the amount of carping and complaining about this issue.

why is my MacBook Air running slow and I bought the 11 inch with all memory and turbo boost

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

OC Genie and Turbo Boost together

How does that work? What are the pros and cons to either?

MSI Z87 G45 and Intel 4670k Turbo Boost Option Missing?

In my BIOS (V1.6):
I go into OC>CPU Features and Turbo Boost is not there, I have seen the bottom setting about using Intel's Turbo Boost, to UNDERCLOCK when needed, but I see no Feature to activate Turbo Boost or for some reason has this feature been taken out of V1.6?
Also note that I accidentally reset my XMP RAM profile and is now back to 2400MHz.

Not quite sure but this should be in just OC. Also you don't have to enable turbo boost but manually increase frequency using + and -, leaving all other settings at auto.
You will find there things like Frequency mode (not quite sure how it's worded) so you can either set it to be e.g. 3.4ghz all the time (idle too) or adaptive so when idling, it goes down to 1.5ghz (around..). Look carefully.

H55M-E33 Turbo Boost Problem

Hi guys, I have an i5 750 installed on my H55M-E33, but I cannot find the option to turn turbo boost on.
Does this motherboard support it?

Quote from: fanta on 04-March-10, 05:17:36
Do you have the prerequisites for the turbo boost feature to be shown in the bios?
For my particular board p55-cd53, The turbo boost option is not shown unless intel EIST is enabled.
I did check out the manual for the board and there was no mention of turbo boost (well that I could find). Now with that said, they have your cpu listed as supported since v1.0 bios, so I imagine the feature is there.
Cheers
Thanks man that did the trick. I enabled EIST, rebooted and turbo boost appeared in the cell menu!
Strange there is no mention of this in the manual though.....
Cheers

Msi gx 623 no turbo boost

hello everyone,
i have my msi gx 623 laptop for over the years now, at the begining for like 8 months everything was ok, with turbo off cpu speed was almost 2.0MHz with turbo on cpu speed always jumped to over 2,3MHz.
Now for last few months i've noticed that my turbo button doesn't boost cpu while playing games.
this one screen was taken with turbo off
and this one with turbo on
anyone have any idea what can be wrong? as you can see, all what turbo does is rises cpu temp nothing else.
im runing win 7 x64 and bios wasn't updated at all

Quote from: Bas on 13-August-10, 09:32:33
As I said before, put W7-32bit on it, unless you have specific 64bit software you must run, as I do believe SCM doesn't function.
32bit software with hardware control won't work in 64bit windows!
Nor does any 32bit program benefit anything being run in 64bit Windows.
To say brief: Do not run 64bit Windows if you don't know why you run it.
i run 64bit because 32bit doesnt use all of my 4gb rams, well at least it didnt one year ago.
btw how can you explain why i had no problem with win 7 64bit and turbo boost 4-5 months ago?
here is some proof that scm doesnt have problem functioning on 64bit, the only thing that doesnt work is that cpu speed doesnt boost with turbo on

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 .

MSI P67A-C45 - C-State, Turbo Boost, RAM and UEFI questions

I received my MSI P67A-C45 B3 a few days ago. After having installed the OS and the rest, I tried to enable C-State (no limit) and surprisingly it works (with the B2 it caused a freeze). After some time I noticed a sort of high pitched noise and I knew it was the C-State because I had read it here. So I just disabled it, later I'll tray to see if the other C-States (C3, C6, etc.) work without any noise. I'll also try different combinations of the phase mode, currently I'm using Intel SVID because it has a slightly lower idle voltage.
1) First thing, why do I hear a noise only when C-State is enabled? I'm curious.
2) I've also read that disabling the C-State affects how Turbo Boost works, is it true? If yes, what is the difference? Honestly I don't see any relation, one is a power saving feature and the other gives temporary extra performance when needed.
3) About the B3, I noticed that my RAM (G.Skill Ripjaws 1333MHz) haven't the correct timings, they are one value higher (more loose, for example 10 instead of 9).
This didn't happen with the B2 and UEFI 1.8, all the timings were exactly those in the JEDEC #4 profile. I see that in version 1.9 and 1.A they've improved memory compatibility, perhaps it's related?
Anyway since it doesn't matter to me I just left them on auto.
4) I'm not planning to update my UEFI (B3 came with v1.9) for a few months since it works fine (except that small RAM problem) and I don't overclock.
I noticed that the latest version is 1.A, so it's normal to use 1.A after 1.9? I've never seen it before.

This might shed some light on question #1. Reply #17; https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=147219.0
Thanks!
Does someone know anything about question #2?
@krkrkr
I'm currently using APS mode with C-State enabled and the noise isn't there. The strange thing is that the Vcore is the same both with C-State enabled or disabled. Anyway I think I'll continue using APS mode with C-State enabled, thanks.
Now I have a problem, I'm trying to update the UEFI but it doesn't work. I downloaded UEFI v1.A for the B3, then I used method I of the MSI HQ Tool but during the UEFI update it blocks at "Preparing to take a new BIOS backup". It just stays like that all the time...
How can I resolve?
Now I still have v1.9 and if I go in the CPU features I get "Error invalid input method" (or something similar, I can't remember properly). Before trying to update it didn't happen.

Once and for all: Hyper-threading, turbo boost on Core i5 MBA?

Hey, all.
There is a lot of conflicting information on whether the new Core i5 MacBook Airs (as opposed to the upgraded Core i7 options) support hyper-threading. As best I can gather, there is still no "official" Apple statement on the subject. I thought I'd gin up another conversation in the event someone has more definitive information. In case anyone wants a fresh bit of provocation, earlier today I asked one of Apple's online "Live Chat" experts. Here's what she said:
The Core i7 offers Triple Channel memory, hyper-threading, and full dual 16x video bandwidth.
But the i5 doesn't offer the TurboBoost or hyperthreading.
You would have to do the upgrade to the i7 for that.
Agree? Disagree?

Here is a comparison of the three processors used for the 2011 MBA.
It would appear that the i5 does have Turbo Boost (and Hyperthreading), unless Apple's specification calls for disabling TB.
But, if we look at some of the benchmark testing, the results would seem to imply that the specification only differs by the differences shown in these charts, hence Turbo Boost would be evident across all the Airs.

Hyper-V stopped turbo boost and cpu park on my intel 4702mq processor?

Hi I just got my lenovo thinkpad e540(core i7 4702mq ,256 hyper-x ssd, nvidea geforce 2gb...)
I installed windows 8.1 and server 2012 r2 to separate personal and business use.
The cpu was running at many speeds to preserve battery life (between 0.7ghz and 3.2ghz on turbo boost). After installing the hyper-v role, the speed in task manager is stale at 2.19ghz and
all the cores are not being parked even when the system is idle, is this a bug or that's just how virtualization work??
Thanks!!

Quote from: NovJoe on 22-November-09, 01:24:35
Performance mode probably means having higher voltages or higher "optimized" settings to run the system. Fail safe mode already spelt out its intentions to keep the system from failing.
For details, you can contact MSI for more information.
As I stated in my first post, I carefully went through all of the BIOS settings and the only thing I could find different between 'default' and 'optimized' is the setting for 'Intel Turbo Boost'.
I will post a question on the BIOS board about any other differences, but until then my original question remains...
...does anyone know of any problems (and hopefully FIXES) with the P55-GD80 and Intel Turbo Boost?

Speedstep or Turbo Boost and Logic CPU Meters

I'm currently weighing up selling my remainding outboard synths and going the plugin route, so last night i loaded logic up with as many plugins as i would normally use in the equivalent of hardware audio tracks to get an idea on CPU Usage, Heat build up etc. (I run on a macbook pro in clamshell to external monitor).
Just to note, i don't normally run with the CPU meter displayed so this is all quite new to see what's going on under the hood, especially as i was making a point to watch it.
What i noticed was that the CPU meter went up very quickly to about 20-30% across all cores after the initial plugins that i loaded up.. But after that point i could load several audio units and record with them, yet they were using nowhere near the same kind of overhead the initial few used.... Dare i say it, they were hardly noticable on the load.
Now, i know that intel processors have had speedstep in the past which would slow your cpu down until the demand was there, and i'm aware that the modern cpu's have Turbo Boost which increases the core speed if required.
So, what i'm curious to know is that do plugins generally cache and have less draw on a system in multiples, or is this a case of my CPU ramping up it's capability the more i pushed it?

hey fmortz,
could you go to > http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70498
and do a bios update.
