You're experiencing different performance levels across applications. The issue may relate to how your system handles workloads or power delivery under varying CPU demands. Turbo boost works best with sustained high loads, which seems to happen in programs like Arnold and Blender/Meshroom. Try adjusting power limits or checking for driver updates to see if that helps.

The term you're referring to isn't standard in computing. A turbo usually means an increase in air pressure for piston engines, unrelated to electronics. Using "turbo" here just adds confusion. It could be described as a mysterious performance enhancement or something similar.

So basically just increasing performance then. It seems Intel might have made a mistake. The CPU boost depends on temperature; it adjusts based on how hot things get. Originally it was part of the central processing unit concept. I think it’s because the device is already too warm to function properly. If cooling gets better, it should start boosting more. What cooling solution are you considering?
