Hi All,

Can anyone help me with the best bios settings please,I'm not bothered about overclocking just the best performance I can get whilst stopping the cpu from getting really hot.

At the moment I've got mce disabled,turbo on intel turbo boost max 3 off speedstep and speedshift on.

I've also set pl1 to 125w and pl2 to 253 and set a offset of 0.1.

This gives me a cbr23 of 26176,my cores show 5.3 and 4,2 all the time even when idle,is this becuase of speedshift where it boosts the clocks up quickly ? I've read software ike hw info doesn't pick up on this so it looks like your at high clocks all the time.

I mainly use my pc for gaming are their setting sI should turn on or off to improve things? Haven't had chance to game much yet but played Warzone for a while and temps were 71c on the cpu package.
 
Thanks for the link,I may well drop the power limits further but it's the other settings I'm unsure of,such as speedshift and intel turbo boost max 3.

If you change the power envelope, I think it automatically downclocks the CPU to stay in that window. Speedshift is what the CPU uses to ramp the voltage and clocks up and down, but I think it will still do this with EIST, it'll just be OS controlled instead. You would not normally disable these, unless you're trying to achieve a stable overclock that it interferes with. Turbo boost max 3.0 is for optimised single core/thread performance, by boosting the best cores. Turbo boost 2.0 is for boosting the CPU in any circumstance (lightly threaded, or heavily threaded). If you turn off turbo boost 3.0, I believe it will mean that your CPU gets a lower top-end single core/thread performance. If you turn off turbo boost in general, then the CPU will be stuck at the base clock and you'll lose bucket loads of performance, except the power consumption will be a lot lower.
 
Thanks would you say it's worth turning on turbo max 3 then and leave speedstep and speedshift on? It sounds like turbo max 3 will help with gaming performance as it's single core performance?

My assumption would be that the most effective performance per watt is achieved by leaving everything on and only limiting the power envelope, so that the CPU can manage everything itself, but I haven't actually tested this.

I also haven't tested disabling turbo boost max 3, but I suspect that you'll find most games are running at the max all-core frequency, even if they're quite old, rather than the highest single-core clock.
 
Turns out I had turbo max 3 on already,putting Intel adaptive boost technology from off to auto dropped my cb23 score by just over 200.
