Asus Twin Turbo Button Not working

I don't know for what reason but Asus Twin Turbo button is not working. I might have stopped some program but what to do? I want a fully functional laptop.

 

You gotta have Power4Gear installed for it to work. But i recommend SetFsb over it and you can customise the turbo and splendid button to do something else .

 

fixed it.. It helped in BC2 that's why i used it.

 

how does it help in BC2? Im currently on 211 and 10.8 and I think it runs fine but any more in BC2 can help/

 

Pushes the FSB of CPU higher.. like from 133 to 142... u can push it higher using SetFSB but i don't want to stress computer too much yet.. don't want it breaking .. just got it u know

 

Sean just one thing... Isnt BC2 more GPU intensive/limited, so wouldnt you gain more from a slight GPU overclock? (like 750/1000)
There are very few games that are really so CPU dependant that such a slight CPU overclock would matter like with GTAIV?

 

Actually in every test I've tried, including single threaded to 8 threads, the ASUS "turbo" mode makes the CPU slightly slower. It is essentially the same speed because the difference is very small. This is apparently caused by it having an adverse affect on the CPU's Turbo Boost feature.

 

I have higher scores in cpu test with twinturbo enabled... (all everest cpu-test, intelburntest and 3dmark vantage)

 

It is possible that in some situations the ASUS turbo might help, but it is by no means across the board.

I also ran the Supreme Commander Forged Alliance benchmark and found a small decrease again. The results are essentially identical though because this test has a higher margin for error due to it not being quite the same on each run.

I have only seen increases across the board when using Twin Turbo. Maybe its just luck of the draw, with a higher chance of it having a negative effect.
