TDP Throttle down to 20W


Recommended Posts

Your laptop has some throttling problems. What model is it? I am not sure why it throttles but you should try using ThrottleStop.

Check the Set Multiplier box and set that to the maximum value, disable BD PROCHOT and you can also use ThrottleStop to under volt your CPU and cache. After that click on the Turn On button and then run a stress test to see if anything has changed.

Try turning on the ThrottleStop - Log File option and then copy and paste your log file data to Pastebin.com - #1 paste tool since 2002! and post a link here.

ThrottleStop is incredible.

Question: What's going on with your battery? I notice the red "X" on it in your screen shot. Depending on what kind of laptop you have, some of the newer systems have hybrid charging systems and may not function correctly without a battery.

Excellent observation Mr. Fox. I think some laptops have charging systems that are so inadequate that they are unable to provide enough power to maintain full performance during an extended stress test. The throttling might be the laptop's way of screaming for mercy or at least some more power. How many watts is the power adapter rated at?

It is too bad that unbiased reviews that properly load and test a laptop are impossible to find. There seems to be some sort of conspiracy between manufacturers and media sites to keep consumers in the dark. As a consumer, you have to be willing and able to do your own product testing and then immediately ship back any laptop that doesn't live up to the sales hype.
