Question Hello,
Does the speedstep feature on my Intel processor limit the CPU's performance all the time or only when it is not required. Will the CPU run at maximum core clock speed when running a CPU intensive application? If speedstep is limiting the speed all the time, how can I disable it?
Thanks in advance.
Answer hi ali,
go to the following article, it will tell you all you need to know about speedstep. you can skip the explanation section and go straight to the operating system support section to get your answer. basically it's dependent on your OS and computer type.
also being that i all but absolutely loathe Intel i feel compelled to point out that in this article you will read that AMD does support generic drivers for it's equivalent of speedstep, called powernow!, where as Intel does not offer direct driver support. this is most likely due, in whole or in part, to the fact that Intel is the devil.
peace,
