Or keep turbo off indefinitely so my parts don't cook but have to play at reduced FPS/performance? Well, at least I finally know that turbo mode for the CPU is the main factor in my case for temperatures.- Latest 8th Gen. What's interesting is that lowering graphics settings for me hardly lowers CPU temps at all. Some games it's fine I notice only a 5-10 FPS drop and it's still playable, but for others it's a 15-20 FPS drop. using the UE4 engine) at highest settings anymore while turbo is off. The only problem is that I can no longer feasibly play games (e.g. I also changed my power settings to from Balanced to Ultimate, which seems to enhance performance slightly as well. Then, I turned on Speed Shift - EPP and immediately noticed a +8-10 FPS jump without any temperature increase (so far) even after 30+ mins so I'm definitely keeping this on while keeping turbo off. I dropped offset voltage by 100.6 mV, maybe I'm not doing it right but for me it made no temperature or performance difference, so I just resetted it back to default voltage. Some observations:Īs soon as I check Disable Turbo on ThrottleStop (without touching any other settings), my CPU temperature drops drastically to 70-75c from 95c even while gaming for 30+ mins at highest settings. The thermal throttling was getting too much for me lately (going up to 95c avg on the CPU while GPU is okay running in the 70c range), so I got ThrottleStop installed and set up.
