does anyone have a DETAILED way of overclocking laptop cpu? I was using Voltageshift to lower temps and save power, once I UN-installed it, my cpu is ALWAYS in energy saving mode.
update: Switched to SMBIOS MBP 15,1; Processor then was draining a lot of power. Installed VoltageShift.kext set offsets to -75mv -50mv -75 mv. Now CPU0 has more P-states, Idles go as LOW as .8ghz, 92-98 percent cpu idle, and 45-48 degrees at idle.**Battery only has 80 percent health as reported in Dell Bios, but I still get around 5 1/2- 6 hrs on battery life. Although VoltageShift info reads cpu base frequency at 2.ghz, Hackintool and AppleIntelInfo Shows processor running @3700mhz and at 45 degrees C. I did NOT have a GUIDE to follow, so if ive done something wrong or if the readouts show any misconfigurations PLEASE let me know. ive attached screenshots and Benchmarks.
