With the new version of ThrottleStop, try checking the FIVR - Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limits option.

So I reverted the things I did in the guide and enabled DPTF in BIOS again, and now I'm back to scratch. I also tried unchecking the "Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limits" when I had DPTF disabled in BIOS, which made no difference. Then I disabled DPTF in the BIOS (so that I had both followed the guide and disabled DPTF in the BIOS). This made no difference (same problem as originally, i.e.
Throttling mixmax software#
So I tried following a guide ( ) I found for removing any DPTF software (after having enabled DPTF in the BIOS again). However, this led to even more severe throttling (TS Bench), actually staying around 7.5W (see screenshot). Searched around for a bit, and ended up trying to just disable DPTF in the BIOS, which was possible. This seems to be limiting TDP at around 18W (actually 18.8W). So frustrating when it at the very least seems to be able to do it for a short while.ĮDIT 2: After a bunch of fiddling around, I saw something called Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework (DPTF) in the advanced power settings of Windows. ini file from this version, or do I have to manually change all of the settings?ĮDIT: I realize that the Cinebench score might be the best I can hope for, but I don't see why I can't run at higher Turbo Boost Power Limits (other than maybe hardware imposed limitations).
Throttling mixmax update#
PS: As a side note, is there any good reason to update ThrottleStop to the newest version? If so, can I copy the. I've attached screenshots of my settings, as well as one of the initial Turbo Boost when running TS Bench, and one where the throttling has come into effect. I will also note that before I had installed the RwDrv.sys, changing Turbo Boost Power Limit had no effect.Ĭan anyone (looking especially at unclewebb, since they seem to be one of the pros) help me optimize my settings and/or help me figure out what is wrong? Is it just some limit that Lenovo or Intel has imposed on the computer? Still, it seems weird that I'm able to affect the Turbo Boost Power Limit Short but not Long. Furthermore, PROCHOT (in the main window) stays at 100C for the whole time, and PL1 goes red (in Limit Reasons) when it throttles, so it seems to me that this certainly isn't thermal throttling. I will note that the original Turbo Boost Power Limit setting was 18 (although I don't remember if I changed it to that a long time ago or if I just never touched that setting). When I run TS Bench or Cinebench, the PKG Power rises to 30W for a short while (I guess 28 sec), but afterwards it throttles down to around 18W, instead of the 28 I have set it to. Undervolting: -80.1 (CPU Core + CPU Cache).Turbo Ratio Limits: all 34 (standard and maximum, it seems).

"Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limits" checked.These are the settings that I'm currently at, including a Cinebench score (no other software running): I installed ThrottleStop 8.70.6 a while ago, but I'm now trying to make a profile for maximum performance. I'm having an issue with throttling on my Lenovo 720s 14IKB, which has an Intel i5-8250U processor.
