Question Turbo boost overclocking
Question Turbo boost overclocking
The turbo boost after overclocking the base clock speed remains consistent in terms of GHz increase. If your base clock is 3.7 and TBI is 4.6, then after reducing it to 4.3 the TB stays at 5.2. This suggests that exceeding 4.6 GHz would cause a downclock when turbo boosts, making it unnecessary to keep turbo on.
To automatically adjust voltage and clock speeds so that only maximum values are used during intensive tasks like gaming, you need to enable turbo boost.
When you increase the overclock, you're boosting the turbo speed. For a CPU with a 4.6 turbo clock, aim to overclock it to 4.6 or higher. If you keep speedstep enabled, the CPU will slow down when idle or under light loads and then ramp up to higher speeds when needed. Memory clocks remain constant at their designated speed and timing. The voltage for the CPU will adapt according to usage, either matching your settings or the automatic adjustment from the motherboard.
The system should maintain a stress level between 3.7 and 5.0 when operating at 5ghz with turbo boost enabled. However, the voltage may also change based on the power requirements.
