Windows 10: CPU should be 'locked' to 2.4GHz but instead goes to the max

I have just bought this laptop: Pavilion Gaming i5-9300H and I have not touched the BIOS but it is automatically overclocked when it should be locked? I am unsure why this CPU is locked so am also unsure if it can damage the CPU.

disable 2.4ghz network

First, get the computer to forget your current network:

• Click the Network icon on the lower right corner of your screen.
• Click Network settings.
• Click Manage Wi-Fi settings.
• Under Manage known networks, click the network you want to delete.
• Click Forget. The wireless network profile is deleted.

Next, go into your router and either completely disable the 2.4GHz radio or set the 2.4 and the 5G radios to different SSIDs, maybe the 2.4 can be your guest Wifi...

Then, on your computer, only join the 5Ghz SSID network.

The suggestion in the post above to just disable the SSID broadcast of the 2.4Ghz radio will probably not work, your computer will still join it.

 

Windows 10 only use half of max cpu speed

for intel processors, try this instead. go into your device manager and open up the processor tree, and update the driver to the one labeled 'processor'. you must do this for every core listed in the tree, or it will not work. the CPU will still be identified
the same in the device manager, but instead of using intelppm.sys it will use processor.sys instead. after reboot on my system, instead of .90 Ghz, my system is now running at 1.60Ghz. my system still isn't turbo boosting to 2.8 Ghz, yet but it's a step in
the right direction.

I assume that for those with AMD CPU's in the update driver screen instead of the two option being intel process and processor, it would be AMD processor, and processor. if this is the case, then this operation should work for AMD cpu's as well

 

CPU frequency locks at 0.78 GHz

Hello,

My CPU get locks at 0.78 GHz and not going up or down. In the same time when CPU is locked at 0.78 GHz,

laptops fans runs fast (noisy) but the coming air is not even hot.

I have found a tool named Intel(R) Extreme tuning utility to use it as monitor of "what's going on with my system",

i'm not overclocking or changing something in CPU.

Tuning utility shows value of "Thermal Throttling" as 100% i think this is the reason why CPU stays at 0.78 GHz, it get down step because of this thermal throttling.

CPU package and core temperature is normal around 40c .

All this information is visible into this picture:



With random combination of reboots, shutdown unplug power and plug power CPU gets frequency stepping again

Thermal Throttling is becoming zero and fans stop... and everything goes normal.

Can someone explain what is connection between Windows (10) OS and CPU freq. stepping.

I think there is some connection because of available options in power plan settings, there is options Processor power management

that can control CPU min and max freq. state, but i'm not pretty sure is it related to "Thermal Throttling".
