Optimal CPU specs

If that doesn’t work, you can try this:

Crackling with Powerful Laptop (with Ultimate Performance Plan Active)(Solution: ThrottleStop)

It could be the case that your system ‘thinks’ it can do the job with that stepping. Apart from the power profile, I use Throttlestop Download ThrottleStop (9.7.2) | TechPowerUp The setting ‘speed shift - epp’ is for me the most important one: setting it to 0 (zero) means that you want performance instead of efficiency. There are a lot of other settings (also cpu voltage related), but I wouldn’t go there unless you really know what you’re doing. I leave them alone.
