  • I have an HP laptop, it can run upto 4ghz but sits at 1.8ghz
    it is an i7 quad core with 8gb of RAM

    I downloaded intels turbo boost monitor thinking I could crank up the basic processor speed, I used to understand how to use throttlestop but it doesnt seem to affect this laptop.
    Being HP I cant get to advanced settings in the BIOS... can I?

    Please halp, I just want it to run at 2.5ghz all the time with the capacity to run a little higher (it only does this when opening/closing programs) all the time. I can cool it with a fan stand tray thing. For games. Well, one game.
    I use it for a bit of music stuff too so im sure that would benefit as well.

    Cheers my dudes.

  • Please halp

    PC Tech thread might help, you'd need to specify exact CPU model number to get an answer on whether you can run all cores at 2.5GHz for long, or even at all.
