    I guess a lot of people here know that but I am searching for this very long time. When you open speedstep and turbo in your bios you can overclock but if you have weird device like mine cpu downclocking itself to like 1.8ghz even in %100 usage conditions. In cpu benchmarks no problem but in games it is just cancer. So solution is: Unlocked bios and Throttle stop.
    I had a regular bios with throttle stop is not work or unlocked bios without TS.
    You must on turbo and speedstep in your bios but you must on clock modulation %100 and disable speedtep in TS. Ta daa. This is the solution my friends. Now you can overclock your cpu and you can use it max speed all time.
    Maybe you can fix it in your bios with fixed clock ratio but I do not have this option in mine. So happy new year and regards.(6700k)
    Edit: If TS not work use Real Temp program and disable eist in settings after windows start.
    Edit2: You must on Speed Shift in TS if you off SpeedStep.

    Then use Speedshift and disable Speedstep & C1E in TS so that CPU can perform higher on its own. Try value of 80 and see if it works.
    I'm on 6700HQ and its BGA turd, yours will have a hefty improvement.

    I will try thanks for information. I noticed my speedstep not working properly. If cpu downclock to 1.3ghz its stuck on that value until restart.

    Yes, that is what can happen if you disable SpeedStep. The CPU then has no way to properly change speeds.

    If you have used ThrottleStop to enable Speed Shift, that might be OK. If Speed Shift is not enabled, I recommend that you leave SpeedStep enabled.

    You must be totaly right I tried Speed Shift value 80 and 1 and it worked. Weird thing is in %100 cpu usage my SpeedStep decides to something like 1.8Ghz then lags then I have to do this. I learned one more thing today. I was thinking my mainboard or cpu maybe bios settings doing that.
