a - disable turbo from bios setting
- that i can't use. I have windows8 on another HDD , and there the turbo is justified (in games)
b - generate an SSDT typing
- that i'm trying now.
where "XXXX" could be the cpu clock fr you want. But if PM asks for max frequency (even for youtube), that will be.
Getting a little lower TDP (just few Watts) allows CPU not only to have lower temperature, but less power consuming as well.
And without losing performance: I find it an amazing feature provided by Ivy Bridge Power Management.
Anyway, maybe I'm wrong and there would be more sophisticated methods to reach what you want: there's a plenty of guys here, that can help you out
- your idea could be good.. but i really don't want to modify the tdp.. is good as from factory.. because lowering tdp.. won't made youtube require less than.. 3600 Mhz on cpu..(and i use an aftermarket cooler for cpu)
- thanks a lot , you helped me to understand better some things.. i will even read more about lowering tdp.. to convince myself
- by the way.. I don't use an DSDT, is that bad? i have a Gigabyte 7 Series motherboard (look at signature)
