Anand speaks of it too

Even simple Windows 8 store games run faster on my ASUS T100TA (Atom Z3740, 2GB RAM) than my Surface Pro 3 (i5 4300U, 8GB RAM) on battery due to aggressive throttling.

(Just google it, it is all over the place.)

So I guess the consensus towards haswell throttling, in general(and at stock), is that it is a feature not a flaw.

I was not aware there was an announcement celebrating this shift in "normal" operational conditions for general compute.

I guess we should call this feature Reverse-Turbo. The lord giveth(Reverse-Turbo&#8482 and the lord taketh(TSX)... i guess. /sarcasm.

Anyway, here is to celebrating the 4th gen Core Intel Haswell featuring Reverse-Turbo™ for your lagging pleasure.

When you can rewrite this post not to be a troll, I will update the post and open this thread. Until then you can have an infraction.

So you're rather have a permanently weaker core? What hypothetical solution would you propose?

Its an issue with the Surface Pro 3, not with Haswell.

Your issue is with Microsoft, not Intel as you attempt.

Microsoft is also working to fix some of the issues:
