With an Intel i7-8650U, is it possible to limit when TurboBoost speeds up the CPU?
I run some virtual soundcard software which requires frequent usage of the CPU. This causes TurboBoost to kick-in, with XTU reporting my CPU running at 3.8 GHz at all times, yet with 2-3% load.
Eventually, this causes power limiting and severe throttling. While I've found I can outright disable TurboBoost, and control its maximum clock rate, it would be nice to raise the threshold at which TurboBoost becomes active. That way, I can still have a faster CPU when I need it, but keep the power usage low (preventing limiting) when it's just the background soundcard driver running.
Is this possible through some configuration, or perhaps other software like ThrottleStop?
I'm running Windows 10 x64.
