Sadly, on the processors with TurboBoost you have to enable Speedstep to get the TurboBoost.
What I do is go to the Power Control Panel (assuming Win7 OS btw) and select the High Performance profile. Then, in that profile go to 'change advanced settings" and turn off Thermal Protection (I think thats what they call it, its in the processor group of settings). This will result in you achieving the Turbo boost performance without the OS throttling back the cores. What a crazy scheme (making you eat SpeedStep to get Turboboost). 73 On Tue, Aug 30, 2011 at 10:17 PM, Tim Ellison, W4TME <t...@flex-radio.com>wrote: > SpeedStep or Cool-n-Quiet technologies are not conducive to real-time audio > processing applications.
