For some reason Turbo Boost is not working properly. If I set EIST to Auto or Enabled, it won't go past 3.4GHz, if I disable it, it will throttle from 1.6GHz directly to 3.8GHz, so even if I try to set a higher multiplier, it won't work as I want.
I want it to go from 1.6GHz > 3.4GHz > 3.8GHz. Once the Turbo Boost is working, I intend to set a higher multiplier for Turbo Boost to do a light OC and I hope it all works.
I wonder if this has anything to do with some needed tweak for CPU Power Management, I know that there are some kexts that deals with this area, but from what I read in the description, that's for preventing Kernel Panic and not so much for get Turbo Boost working. I saw an user installing the SandyBridge Core i5/ i7 Overclocked kext and he had the same IvyBridge processor as mine, does it do any good?
Does it make a difference if my System definition is MacPro 3,1 or iMac 13,1?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
