I understand you're exploring ways to improve performance on your laptop. You're using a desktop setup for demanding tasks, which is ideal. The Lenovo ThinkPad T440 with an i5 4300U and Intel HD 4400 is well-equipped. Since XTU is limiting throttling, you might want to focus on other methods. There isn't a standard package TDP setting to change directly, but adjusting voltages can help. For stress testing, tools like Cinebench R23 or AIDA64 are reliable options. Remember, undervolting can boost scores without overheating. If you try it, monitor temperatures closely and adjust as needed.

Undervolt is the sole choice available. You might attempt to increase turbo boost maximum, though this often fails.

I've observed an unusual behavior. When launching Prime95 or the XTU benchmark, it begins with a TDP of 18 watts, then around midway power limits reduce to 15 watts, dropping roughly 400MHz. This indicates it can exceed the 15W TDP temporarily. How can I extend the duration above 15W? Thermal performance remains sufficient as fans barely spin and temperatures reach up to 67°C. Are there any recommended guides for mastering throttle management?
