EPTMy question pertains to the advertised "2.3 ghz normal, 3.2 ghz turbo processor speed". How do I manage to "turbo" my APU, does it automatically do it when stressed or are there specific options with regards to how you turbo the processor.
Thanks!

In a game, since the integrated graphics are being used heavily and there may be more than one CPU core used heavily (depending on the game, maybe not), I wouldn't expect 3.2 GHz, just more than 2.3 GHz. | ||

This. Yeah, it is automatic. If it's not needed, it won't go into turbomode  | ||

Ok, I was reading online most people are averaging 2.7 to 2.8 which is quality, I don't plan on playing on high graphics whatsoever ^^ just low low graphics. Thanks everyone^^ | ||

The entire process is automatic, so you don't have to do anything to get the boost. Note that if you set your notebook in an energy saving mode, clockspeeds may be reduced overall and the turbo may also be disabled to minimize power usage. | ||
