I understand that. When enabling power saving mode, it might reduce your overclock as well. Observe the results. Does your overclocking BIOS include an Adaptive Voltage feature? (The remaining options are Override and Manual)

I adjusted the settings to achieve a higher performance. Other modifications were also made. Basic overclocking could lead to similar outcomes.

It seems like your power-saving options are turned off.

Hello Ben12345, you might have spent some time navigating this discussion. It's a bit outdated, but still worth checking out.

DonkeyOatie asked about the overclocking method used. He mentioned watching a video on the topic and noted he's still learning. He also shared that he disabled 'cool and quiet' and C1E, asking whether to enable 'Cool and quiet'. Additionally, he said he only increased the multiplier and voltage gradually.

Reviewed the thread you shared. It covers the details more deeply than I could. Certain processors support low idle states, while others do not.

DonkeyOatie reviewed the thread you linked. It covers the details more clearly than I could. Some CPUs let you achieve a low idle, while others don’t. I went through it but it looks like overclocking isn’t reaching its full capacity. My issue is that my computer keeps running at overclock even when idle. Else I might have misread it.

Now that my overclock is working well, I plan to enable Cool and Quiet so I can conserve power most of the time yet still reach those high GHz speeds when needed.
