ThrottleStop indicates the turbo ratios aren't being applied properly. It could be the BIOS isn't configuring your CPU correctly or there might have been changes in XTU. Try uninstalling XTU and ensure XTUService.exe isn't running afterward.
The ThrottleStop FIVR window displays the standard turbo ratios under the Turbo Ratio Limits section. The numbers in the Ratios column reflect the current CPU settings. Most of these being at 36 is incorrect and restricting your CPU speed. Correct these settings in the BIOS or consistently use ThrottleStop to adjust them properly.
I've encountered this issue several times recently. It may be related to Windows 11. Reducing CPU speed can help users consider upgrading their hardware for better performance.
For optimal performance and with adequate cooling, increasing the PL1 power limit value would be beneficial. A 9700K requires significantly more than 95 Watts during a full stress test like Cinebench. Setting it between 150W and 200W aligns better with achieving maximum performance.
Both HWiNFO and ThrottleStop confirm the turbo ratios aren't configured correctly. ThrottleStop reads the default values directly from the CPU, which are set by Intel during manufacturing. The BIOS and Windows should adhere to these factory defaults.
Thank you for your question. I’m not an expert in bios (ASUS), but I can help clarify what you need to adjust. For example, setting the CPU ratio manually or syncing everything might be necessary depending on your setup.
There should be a setting in the BIOS for manually inputting the default turbo ratios displayed by ThrottleStop.
Sync all means equivalent to overclocking. Do you wish to boost your computer's performance or stick to Intel's standard specifications?
If you alter the BIOS settings, remove the ThrottleStop.INI configuration file before executing ThrottleStop. This ensures ThrottleStop can access the turbo values configured by the BIOS.
Failing to delete this file may cause ThrottleStop to apply the same values it previously used.
You might also use HWiNFO upon startup to verify that the turbo ratios are being applied correctly. If you modify ThrottleStop and then restart HWiNFO, any updates will not be reflected until you refresh the information.
What functioned? The individual who discovers and examines this discussion thread will soon be equipped to address the issue, provided they take the effort to clarify their actions.
The BIOS didn’t automatically set the core ratio for my cores correctly. By manually entering the core ratio in the BIOS and applying frequency throttling, I learned that the default should be used, allowing my cores to reach the standard turbo boost frequency.
