Does this mean that only two cores can be simultaneously at that speed?
- wutwutwat 3y agoIntel chips are already running extremely hot and take a lot to properly cool down, there’s not enough thermal headroom to boost all cores to those voltages in the latest generation of chips. 2 cores is probably pushing it.
- kllrnohj 3y agoYes, that's "Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0" https://www.tomshardware.com/reference/intel-favored-cpu-cores-turbo-boost-max-technology-3.0 https://www.tomshardware.com/reference/intel-favored-cpu-cor... The CPU has 2 golden cores that can hit max boost, and the others can't (at least not consistently enough to market it)
