    How come all manfucaturers include a copy of Intel Turbo Boost in their driver downloads section but Lenovo doesn't?



    Is it crucuial for the CPU to properly overclock? I mean, does it also contain some sort of driver in addition to the monitoring app or what?

    The turbo boost gadget only displays what the CPU is doing, it does monitor as you said but does not include a driver. The CPU will clock up & down without the gadget installed..
    I assume this is what we are talking about
