trying to achieve turbo boost on your Inspiron 5680 isn't working, especially under heavy use. Multiple CPU monitoring tools show speeds between 2.79 and 2.8 GHz, and apps like Passmark Stress and Task Manager confirm it doesn’t exceed 2.8 GHz. The Passmark benchmark and Modern Warfare 2 also report similar results. You might want to check if there are hidden BIOS settings you can unlock to enable performance features.

WELCOME TO THE FORUMS. BY LONG CONVENTION, POSTING IN ALL CAPS ON THE INTERNET IS SEEN AS "YELLING." IT'S DIFFICULT TO READ AND RUDE. PLEASE EDIT YOUR POST, TURN OFF CAPS LOCK, AND USE SOME PUNCTUATION AND PARAGRAPHS TO MAKE IT EASIER TO READ. THIS WILL INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF GETTING HELP.

I've tested several monitoring tools and software to put pressure on the CPU, but the readings don't exceed 2.8GHz. Probably just a bit of luck with the results.

We need to confirm if you're not experiencing thermal throttling. Could you share your current temperatures?

Run a brief test setup using your specs: Core i5-8400, 16GB RAM (2133MHz DDR4), dual-channel 2x8 configuration, ASUS Evo 5500X GPU, 250GB NVMe SSD at 2Gbps read/write, and Windows 10 version 22H2. This is essentially a default Inspiron 5680 gaming desktop with the newest M.2 BIOS and a different GPU.

What cpu do you have? I see i5-8, but that leaves many CPUs it could be. Keep in mind you're asking for something very niche from an office computer that doesn't even like to XMP ram. What chipset is the motherboard?

The VRM temperatures remain stable, and the chipset is compatible with your system.
