Hi bros,

![]()

![]()

Also, i resetted to defaults all power plans.

Looks ok to me tbh. My 3630QM idles around late 50s to 65 °C. Looks like he locked to maximum frequencies when in Balanced/High Performance mode, seems ok to me. Maybe try checking the power profile for balanced, I have mine to minimum processor state 0% and maximum processor state 100% and my computer automatically adjusts the clocks between min and max itself.

In power saver the CPU will downclock to save power.

In my R2, an 920XM, even when i have power setting set to MAX Performance, my FID is jumping from 9 to 25.
Here 2760QM is locked at around 28 ?
Why the hell this is called turboboots ? CPU clock stays at max FREQ anyways ? YOLO
.....when i started TS Bench in throttle stop, CPU temp went to 93'C in 10 seconds and CPU started to throttle down.
Also, when i was repasting, i used Akasa AK-455 Thermal Compound, just because i my friend had it in hand, i think i will put ICD 7 on it now.....
THANKS ! -
@flingin were you able to test the 780m/R3 ?
