Résumé

🌡️ 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! 🌬️
