so seems the guide is focused on reducing temp via undervolting but i think my issue is a little different. i need to take the cap of the…

btw you were difinitely right about my desktop. the new position i put it in collected soo much dust cpu fan is filthy. i took it out and…

yeah exactly it's abit excessive and uncessarily but i get it's advertised for its long battery life which in reality isn't that great i…

sorry for all the replies but i even opened 99 tabs and maxed out the cpu cores and reached max temp of 52 deg.. surely i can incrase clock…

okay so seems it would be most beneficial to run CPUID alongside Prime95 after changes to voltage/clock speed adjustment to test stability.…

oh i think i get it now. it'sa continued test.well year capped at 1.6GHz as soon as i stopped prime clocks drope to 0.8GHz wtf then temps…

yes i did run them both but to be honset with you i had no idea what was happening and it didn't seem to do anything?? all i could…

Yes it is to prevent overheating and damage to CPU but that's not a huge risk running it at a slightly faster clock speed than 1.6Ghz which…

here it is - why does it show 2 clock speeds? is some hardware/drive issue holding it back from that 1.8GHz base clock?…

I could kiss you right now. no homo. I actually saw undervolting earlier and was like this seems hard and gave up turns out it's via the…

yeah i don't have much choice anyway. it's simply not built to maintain higher clock speeds even if i were to change the CPU settings or…

really appreciate the help bro

mhmm you're right. I'm not expecting it to run at a constant 3.40GHz. I just a respectable 2.0-2.2Ghz you know.

yeah i plan on running some experiment however i'm just not sure on what are safe incriments to try you know. Is there a trustworthy OC…

i'm definitely at fault and haven't got a laptop in 7 years. It was advertised as 1.6GHz (3.40GHz) so i thought it implied you can do a bit…

Yeah i know they do but 1.6GHz base clock seems uncessarily low. I know it was designed this way but most laptops run 2.2Ghz just fine…

that's unfortunate. seen some people OC it but didn't talk about cons. I guess this doesn't qualify as a reason for return as i just got it…

No to OC or removable CPU?

so can I safely OC or remove the CPU?

I think if you can unlock TDP limit from 15 to x you can. My main question is what is a safe increase? can I keep it running at 2.4GHz as a…

Hello! I understand that the i5-8250u have an 'autoclock' feature that ramps up the cpu frequency to 3.6GHz however experiences throttling…
