Throttlestop - Turbo Ratio Limits Explained | How to reduce temps in 12th & 13th gen #throttlestop

# 🌡️ Laptop CPU Temperature Management Guide ## Key Points 🔑 ### Undervolting Limitations - For 12th and 13th gen Intel CPUs, manufacturers have introduced microcode that prevents undervolting - Some 11th gen processors also have undervolting disabled ### Alternative Temperature Reduction Method: Turbo Ratio Limits 🖥️ #### How to Identify Thermal Throttling 1. Use ThrottleStop and check FID column 2. Run a stress test (TS Bench) 3. Observe when CPU clock speeds drop unexpectedly #### Adjustment Process - Identify the frequency at which your CPU starts thermal throttling - Reduce Turbo Ratio Limits slightly below that frequency - This prevents thermal throttling while maintaining performance ### Step-by-Step Guide 🛠️ 1. Open ThrottleStop 2. Check current Turbo Ratio Limits 3. Run TS Bench 4. Note the frequency drop 5. Adjust Turbo Ratio Limits in FRVR 6. Verify lower temperatures ### Example Scenarios - Different CPU generations have different default and throttling frequencies - Method works for various Intel processors (10th, 11th, 12th gen) ## Pro Tips 💡 - Always monitor your specific CPU's behavior - Small adjustments can significantly reduce temperatures - This method is especially useful when undervolting is unavailable Enjoy cooler laptop performance! 🌬️
