So I went and bought i3-4130(3.4-3.7GHz) processor instead of the T(4130T)(2.9-3.3GHz) model. I was planning to underclock and undervolt it, but then I realized that do I loose turbo in the process?
Underclocking and volting with fixed settings is easy, but in the process you loose turbo and power saving, because you always have the same fixed clocks.
What I want is that, when I underclock for example 4130 default 3.4ghz to 2.6ghz and still have for example 3.2ghz for turbo. So I'm guessing there has to be some setting in the bios for setting two set of clocks, one for base clock and other for heavy load locks. Is that possible?
My scenario now in the current state would be that my 4130 processor has default clock of 3.4ghz and I want to have it idling around 2.6ghz. But the problem is that when I have all the power saving features on, does the processor overclock itself from my own adjusted 2.6ghz to the processors actual default clocks 3.4ghz? Basically I have to have the ability to set my own underclocked default clock and my own underclocked turbo clocks.
Do I make any sense? :hmm:
