Performance of QuestionProcessor Shows Fluctuations in Threshold Levels
Performance of QuestionProcessor Shows Fluctuations in Threshold Levels
So I have a question about:
Processor Performance Increase Threshold
Processor Performance Decrease Threshold
__
1st : [ Processor Performance Increase Threshold ]
I think if I adjust the threshold to 10% whenever my processor usage hits 10% or more, then performance will rise, so choosing 10% instead of 100% seems better.
Is that right?
__
2nd : [ Processor Performance Decrease Threshold ]
If I set the threshold at 100%, it will stop the processor from dropping performance unless it hits full utilization, which is ideal.
Is that correct?
you want to change these settings because you believe they need adjustment for better performance or compatibility.
I don't believe so. Modern systems with Intel CPUs typically have Speed Shift Technology activated, letting the processor handle itself. Some Windows power plan configurations might remain for backward compatibility, but they likely won't function properly when Speed Shift is enabled in the BIOS as intended.
I see no compelling reason to adjust this setting. Share your findings if experimenting with the increase and decrease thresholds helps achieve something useful.
It’s advisable to stick with the Windows High Performance power plan whenever any device is connected. The greatest efficiency gains occur when CPU cores enter low-power C7 state. Reducing speed doesn’t save as much power unless those cores remain in C7 constantly.
If you wish to observe a CPU running slowly under light load, consider using the Windows Balanced power plan—it offers similar results without significant trade-offs.
Hi
I’m having a problem with my OC settings.
Current configuration:
XMP1 enabled, temperature protection at 90°C, CPU thermal monitor on, etc.
Performance numbers look stable during OCCT stress tests and within safe limits.
However, when playing games, the core clocks keep fluctuating from 5.1 to 4.6 repeatedly.
I need to find a way to fix the 5.1 frequency issue.
Update your post with complete hardware details and operating system information. Provide PSU specifications, including make, model, wattage, age, and condition (original, build, refurbished, used). List all connected peripherals. Indicate whether the network connection is wired or wireless. Consider that the system might be safeguarding itself by default. It may not require immediate fixes.
Well, a 1.35 vcore with high load line calibration can cause the voltage to exceed 1.35v during short periods. This differs from a stress test where load line calibration helps maintain steady voltage under heavy loads. In gaming, however, the load is lighter and changes constantly. It's likely you're experiencing high voltage when the load drops suddenly, which could cause the CPU to reduce performance. For gaming, cinebench is the most effective quick benchmark. Adjust your system settings for stability, and games usually run smoothly.

Someone mentioned that if your OC becomes stable at a certain voltage, you should raise it by [ +0.05v]. My voltage is [ 1.325V ] at [ 5.0 Ghz]. If I want better stability, increasing the voltage to [ 1.330V] would help. Is this really important? Does it actually make a difference in stability?
