  2. CPU stuck at maximum power state

    I'm running Windows 10 on my laptop with an Intel i7-4810MQ.

    My issue is that the CPU stays at the maximum processor state regardless of actual usage of the computer and percentage the setting
    is set at. For example, if I set the maximum state to 100%, the CPU will idle on the desktop at 100%, 3.25GHz, 95°C. Obviously I don't want my PC running at this all the time.

    The only exception is if I set the maximum processor state to a really low setting like 1%. At that point, the CPU stays at 28%, or 0.76 GHz because the CPU can't clock below that.

    Is there a way I can set the maximum to 100% so it clocks up when I game or watch 60fps video, while still running cool and quiet when idling? I feel like that's what it should be doing right now, but it's
    stuck at the maximum.

    I should also note that the High Performance and Balanced power plan both run at 100% all the time. Also, changing the GPU's Power Plan does not affect this.

    Here's a shot of my advanced CPU settings in my Prema Mod BIOS:

    Only 54% CPU Usage Maximum :'(

    Thanks for the follow up. There might be programs that are limiting the CPU, so kindly check
    Power Options. To do so, follow these steps:

    • In the Start Search bar, type Power Options, and then press
      Enter.
    • Under your preferred plan, click Change plan settings.
    • On the next window, click on Change advanced power settings.
    • In the Power Options window, look for Processor power management, and then expand it.
    • Under Maximum processor state, the Setting should be set to
      100%.
    • Click Apply, and then click OK. See image below.

    Cant change Maximum CPU Power in Acer laptop

    Acer Laptops :are they crap ?

    Acer makes a cheap prodcut period. They user lower end plastics, as well as assembly. (I hate working on Acer laptops)

    If budget is an issue then get an acer... though for $50 more you could get a gateway that will smoke the acer in terms of quality.

    For a laptop though i would suggest one of the DV7T's from HP or a Business class Toshiba/HP/IBM (not the lenovo branded, the Thinkpads)
