Okay so i have i5 6400 CPU which runs at 2.7 GHz and its locked i think.
So it has turbo boost of 3.3 GHz and i enabled turbo boost so i want to know how to know when turbo boost kicks in? When does it go from 2.7 to 3.3?
Which piece of software can check it out? Also i am using default cooler which came in box, im planning on swaping it today but can it cause my games to drop fps drasticly in few seconds ?

Its when the VTEC kicks in, yo!

My deepest condolences anon, hope you recover from your brain injury soon.

I had that cpu ever since it came out, i didnt buy it recently and ye i pre ordered 1800x just to benchmark it
>>59147931
Please benchmark the 1800X with two and four cores disabled and at the leaked clock speeds for the R5 lineup
That will be roughly equivalent to a real R5, and you will get infinite (yous) and tech review sites citing you

if you open the task manager on windows 8 and above, it will tell you the frequency it is currently running at. Note that it is balancing demand for CPU time and temperature.

are you sure?

Tight budgets are really shitty ikr

>he didn't BCLK overclock it from day 1

that's literally $10 difference for 10% of performance
>When does my processor activate Turbo Boost
When it needs it. The idea of Turbo Boost is energy saving. If a processor doesn't need 3.3Ghz, it's not going to use it, but it will keep running at a decent clock speed so it doesn't hamper general applications.
>Will a heatsink cause my FPS to drop drastically in a few seconds?
Only if you install the heatsink wrong. In such a case, your processor is overheating. So it will begin throttling performance in an attempt to prevent damage from heat.

So why do higher priced CPUs have a higher base clock but barely more Turbo clock?
Do these CPUs of nowadays clock down to let's say 1000Mhz adapting to the CPU load?
