When viewing my laptop's processor's features, I have a feature known as the "Core Performance Booster" available but disabled. I've attempted to change this in the BIOS, but the BIOS of my laptop are very limiting compared to a lot of other BIOS systems. I've tried to look for chipset drivers, but none are available. The only possible way I could think of that would allow me to enable this feature on my laptop and run the CPU beyond its soft cap at 2.5 Ghz would be to run something through the command prompt with admin privileges.
On a side note, I've read some other forums saying that the feature is only activated if the processor is running at 100% which makes perfect sense, but when I was running several programs and putting a heavy load on my CPU, the "feature" didn't activate. Is it a passive feature that doesn't really say when it's active? Some insight would be appreciated. Here are my specs for my system I'm inquiring about:
Laptop Model: Asus R510DP, based on the X550DP motherboard and A76(Bolton-M3) Chipset
CPU: AMD A10 5750M APU
GPU: Radeon HD 2GB 8670M+8650G(APU graphics)
RAM: 8GB(4X2GB) DDR3 @ 1600Mhz
Drives: Western Digital Black 2 SSHD 120GB+1TB, DVD +R optical drive
OS: Windows 8.1
