I wanted to ask if I take a game of my choice, for example Minecraft, then I open the task manager and watch under power there's a maximum of 3.89 and my laptop with an Intel i5-8300h is supposed to be on 4gHz Boost I'm now interested in why it stays at 3.89 and does not go any higher can someone enlighten me? Or does someone have an idea how I can get it to almost 4 GHz without overclocking?
What are the temps of the CPU?
The clock is adjusted dynamically, i.e. Depending on the load. Maybe no higher clock is required to play or other hardware is the bottleneck.
Or the temperature then gets too high and the CPU throttles not to heat u.
You can make a benchmark with prime95 and see where the clock comes.
At 60 ° to 70 °
Then he doesn't do more. You can check the multiplier range at cpu-z.
Where exactly do I see at Cpu-Z
Multiplier there will be something like 16-39
Where can I set that the test runs
Varies between 37 and 38
What is your multiplier range like? Maybe he's just limited to 39.
The specified 4 GHz of the CPU are the maximum Turbo Boost. Intel only releases the Turbo Boosg for a short time and not for all cores at the same time.
Your CPU automatically stacks to the GHz number that it currently needs to be able to work stably and cleanly. You can achieve a permanent turbo boost to the maximum specified power with an overclocking.
Okay thanks i don't dare to overclock.
