Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver
Overview
Processors containing the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 feature have at least one processor core whose maximum turbo frequency is higher than the other cores.
To realize the higher performance benefit of such a processor core, targeted applications must run on that core.
The Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver directs targeted application software to run on the higher performance processor cores as configured by the user.
After installation, the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver automatically loads when the system starts.
Initially, the application is minimized to the system tray and is accessible by selecting its icon in the system tray via a right mouse click and selecting the "Show UI" control.
The system tray display also allows for enabling and disabling the application/driver as well as the ability to quit/close the application entirely.
Main Window
The Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application displays one main window that contains a number of controls that are described below:
Enable
When the box to the left of the Enable control is checked (Intel default), the software takes actions to run the demanding work of configured targeted applications on processor cores listed in the Core List in an ordered fashion.
When the box is un-checked, the software returns the system to normal OS operation, which may not provide the best performance. Demanding work is defined as targeted application software whose processor utilization exceeds a configured utilization threshold (Intel default = 90%), which can be changed in the Advanced Settings
In some cases, external software may cause the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver to become disabled. In this case, the application displays (External Control Active) to the right of the Enable control. Note that this may occur even when the user has checked the Enable check box.
Foreground App Has Priority
When the box to the left of the Foreground App Has Priority control is checked (Intel default), the in-focus application becomes a targeted application and priority is given to it for placement of its demanding work on processor cores in the Core List over any other targeted applications in the Turbo Boost Max Applications list.
When the box is unchecked, priority is given to targeted applications in the Turbo Boost Max Applications list in list order (top to bottom).
Turbo Boost Max Applications
The box below Turbo Boost Max Applications lists the targeted applications whose demanding work will be moved onto processor cores in the Core List when the Enable box is checked. The list is in priority order with the top priority targeted application at the top of the list. The Add App control can be used to browse and select targeted applications to be added to the list. Alternatively, targeted applications can be added to the list via drag and drop. The list order can be changed by right clicking on a targeted application name and selecting a control from the displayed dialog box. Select Move Up to move the targeted application towards the top of the list or Move Down to move the targeted application towards the bottom of the list. Select Delete to delete the list entry.
Core List
The Core List is an ordered list of the processor cores with the highest performance core at the top. Adjacent list entries may represent cores with equivalent performance. The core numbering scheme is consistent with the operating systems core numbering scheme. For example, Core 0 corresponds to logical processors 0 & 1, Core 1 corresponds to logical processors 2 & 3, etc.
Note: When per core maximum ratio over clocking is occurring, - Overclocking Enabled! is displayed to the right of Core List.
Profile:
A Profile allows for the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Applications software settings to be saved so that the settings can be restored by selecting the saved profile name at a later time. The + and - buttons can be used to add and remove profiles. Profiles may be saved by selecting the Apply button.
Apply & Cancel
When a change has been made to any control, the Apply & Cancel controls change color to indicate a pending change. To save the change select the Apply control. To cancel changes, select the Cancel control.
Advanced Settings
The Advanced Settings window is accessed by left clicking the icon in the upper right portion of the display below the close (X) control and selecting the Settings control. The Advanced Settings window contains a small number of controls that are described below:
Evaluation Interval
The Evaluation Interval advanced setting controls how often the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver looks for demanding work. The interval is specified in 100 millisecond units and the Intel default value is 10 (once per second).
Utilization Threshold %
Demanding work is work whose percent processor utilization over the period specified by Evaluation Interval exceeds a threshold specified by this advanced setting (Intel default = 90%)
Affinity Controls - button selection is one of:
a. Affinitize To All Cores
b. Affinitize Only To Cores With Diversity
Affinity Controls specify whether the Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Application / Driver places demanding work in priority order on all cores in the core list or whether it only places demanding work on higher performance (diverse) cores, which results in OS scheduler policy placing work on the residual cores. The Intel default setting is Affinitize To All Cores.
When a change has been made to any Advanced Settings control, select the OK control to save the change(s). To cancel changes, select the Cancel control.
Note: Intel default control values may have been tuned for a specific platform by the manufacturer and as such may be initially different than documented above.
