Hi!
I have an i7-4771 with stock cooler on an Asus H87Pro, and I wanted to disable every speedstep, and power saving solutions and run the cpu at the max possible speed all the time. I don't really care about consumption, but I want to keep it within reasonable temps (I'm planning to replace the cooler later also)
I'm using Photoshop and Lightroom mostly, and these doesn't cause a constant load, rather spikes, and CPU throttling made these softwares stutter, when from almost idle state they go to 100% load instantly.
I turned speedstep and EPU off, but still, there is some change in clock speed, independent from temps.
I've tried under constant load also: during ca40% multicore load for 30mins it went back from 3,9Ghz to a constant 3,7Ghz, temps were around 58C, (~35C when idle)
I doesn't want to OC more, than it's factory turbo boost speed, but I found the Asus UEFI BIOS rather confusing, I'm not so familiar with some CPU settings and googled a lot already but I'm lost.
Could someone help me to what are the best settings in BIOS to have a very stable max processing power from this CPU?
I'm thinking EPU, EIST, C-States, and others... oh God, how I hate these powers savings techs, I went back to PC from notebooks to get rid of these, and here I am... Please help! Thanks!
