CPU Frequency Limits

Processors X to X cores active

Note
This item is dynamic text, depending on the current processor state.
  • Max turbo frequency bin

  • Max turbo frequency –1 bin

  • Max turbo frequency –2 bins

  • ...

  • Base frequency +1 bins

The maximum frequency (turbo, AVX, and non-turbo) can be restricted to a frequency between the maximum turbo frequency for the CPU installed and 1.2 GHz. This can be useful for synchronizing CPU tasks.

The max frequency for N+1 cores cannot be higher than N cores. If an unsupported frequency is entered, it will automatically be limited to a supported value. If the CPU frequency limits are being controlled through application software, leave this menu item at the default setting ([Full turbo uplift]).
