Windows 10: can someone explain my cpu speeds

hi there
im not realy into hardware, but this puzzels me

i have a brand new laptop
I7 7700HQ base freq 2.80 max turbo freq 3.80

when i am rendering 3d in photoshop my videocard is not maxed out (gtx 1060)

but my cpu is maxed out it runs at 100 % (al 8 treads as seen in task manager)
taskmanager says that my cpu runs at 3.2 to 3.4 GHz at this moment

and this puzzels me
to my understanding of my cpu it max multicore speed should be 2.8
and only a singel core could run at max 3.80 by recieving more voltage

so how come my taskmanager states 3.2 / 3.4 with al treads at 100 %

its not a problem just would like to know the answer *Cool

n8 ARM 11 680 MHz Single CPU???? really

i have a n8 with ARM 11 680 MHz Single CPU, but i have installed x-plorer and i fond that the n8 have CPU speed :192Mhz

can someone explain why n8 have just 192mhz speed???

 

Nokia 5800XM upgrading v30.0.0.11 -> CPU speed change?

Hey (again),

I've noticed the formal 5800 cpu speed when i bught it was 369mhz (i have v21.0.025).

But after V30 firmware was published, i've noticed Nokia and other people wrote 5800 has 434mhz.



can someone explain it?

1 - There are new phone with different CPU? (although they both ARM11)

2 - or the V30 firmware had accelerate the CPU speed to be like N97 and the rest S60V5 models?



i've checked it on my phone with PhoNetInfo.

 

Your CPU is designed to work at 2.80. Turbo freq might increase it for up to 3.8 for a limited time. But since it is not designed to run at the turbo speed, it changes the speed based on the temperature and voltage.

 

so my understandinng that only one cpu could run at a higher freg is not true .....

is this then true :
my cores can run at higer speed if the workload needs it , limited by voltage and temp

the max speed of 3.8 can only be achived when one core (by non multi tread software) has to do al the workload

thanks

Many CPUs can go into a limited turbo mode for more than one core if temperatures are low enough. But full turbo frequency would be limited to a single core and probably only for a short time. The lower the temperatures the more options the CPU has.

 

The full turbo is something rarely actually reached. Most software today that needs a lot of power is multithreaded so it uses 2 or more cores at the same time. To limit temperature and power draw, the CPU will limit turbo speeds if more than one core is active.
