Hi All.

Motherboard: Sabertooth z97 mark 1
CPU: I7-4790k

Hello. LatencyMon (I am trying to do audio production) tells me to turn off CPU-Throttle. I turned off EIST / Sidestep cause I thought that was "CPU-Throttle", but it still tells me to turn it off.

How do I disable CPU-Throttling in BIOS then?
 
Solution
I doubt you can. You probably shouldn't if it is possible. What you should do is make sure you have a good heatsink/fan and make sure your temps are within acceptable range.


CPU Throttling just avoid that your cpu overheats and shutdown himself (at best)/burn (at worst) due too much heat while do nothing if the heat is not too much, why in hell do you want to disable it?

If you need more processing power or lesser heat to avoid throttling your options are just a new more powerfull cpu in the first case or a new ane better heatsink in the second.

 
You can't disable it, and I don't know why LatencyMon would want you to, because it's there to protect the CPU from overheating. If you have a proper heatsink installed, (the stock will do just fine if you don't OC it) then it should not throttle at all, because the temps would stay well under the limits.
 


I have no idea why LatencyMon tells me to turn it off - But my CPU is at 42C when I run this program, not hot at all.
