    Hello guys, I have just bought Samsung 535u3c with A6-4455M and I see, that Turbo core doesn´t even work. When I used CB 11.5 freq stood under 2100Mhz. When I used AMD Benchmark in AOD, freq was all the time about 2600Mhz. Is there any software, that prevents turbo freq going down ? BTW temps were about 60°C, so I don´t think, that overheating/throttling is the problem...

    Did you update your chipset driver? Turbo is usually controlled discreetly, so unless there are configuration options within BIOS, your only other option would be to use OC software on the CPU (such as CPU-Z).

    You might be able to get CPU-Z to work. Check Samsung's site for the chipset driver, or go directly to AMD's website for it. If you continue to have problems, try contacting Samsung to see if it's a known issue; they might have a fix for it.
