Can anyone tell me how to use the Turbo Boost?

My laptop is using a i5-8250u 1.6Ghz processor “with Turbo Boost up to 3.4Ghz”. However, my laptop processor never reach 3.4Ghz, or even close. The Turbo Boost never works. I can only experience 1.6Ghz.

I provided a quick introduction to the feature and links to further reading within this thread: https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00004eWYi0SAG/intelr-coretm-i53337u-cpu-180ghz.

 

Once you have read all of this and understand how the feature actually works, go talk to the manufacturer of your laptop/appliance/PC; they are responsible for the implementation and operation of this feature on this machine.

 

Hope this helps,
