Christian Ney Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 You do realize that turbo mode is 'just' an extra multiplier, right? Yep but only for few core right ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Ney Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I was thinking about that last night and I was wrong, why split into two cathegorie, as we can submite on CPU-Z with only 2 cores of a i7 980X ( for exembple which is a 6-core CPU ). And also without HT. So as we are able to submite with the amount of enabled core we want and with HT or without. Why weren't be allowed to submite with or without Turbo mode. But the issue was : Turbo is it stock freq or not. My Answer : no, turbo mode is not stock freq, cause he will not work on turbo most of the time. And it's like an Auto-OverClocking from the Bios/chip to set an extra multiplier when we need 100 % of the CPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobnova Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I say go by what's on the box. The rated frequency doesn't really matter much for HWBot anyway, if you can't OC past the turbo frequency you're doing it wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
