Changing my min processor power to 80 and max to 99 (instead of 100) fixed my cpu problems, idles at 53 instead of 76 degrees in game now. It seems like it manually overrides the games attempts to overload your cpu, even helped my hitreg alot
Doesn't this basicly turn off the "Turbo" features of a CPU systemwide, because it can't run at more than 100% anymore? I think 99% mean actual fixed 99% and 100% is 100% and more like 112% etc. if the turbo kicks in. I wouldn't recommend that to anybody tbh. Sure it probably can solve problems, but also reduces performance in moments when you need it the most. But he uses an Intel and that is different than AMD, so hey maybe that helps him. I remember the last time I owned an Intel I had it just permanently run at the same fixed clock speeds, if it's fixed values it's okay to set the power to 99%.
Well or I understood the "Processor Power" option wrong, I never had to use that to solve any problems.
