how to asus mobo turbo on i5 2500

[Jonathantomshardware]

Hi,

I have an i5 2500 in a p8z68 v pro gen 3. I can supposedly turbo boost it from 3.3 to 3.7 in bios. On the EZ panel I can select optimal and get 3.4 but how do I get the 3.7? I know that I cannot oc the chip and I am not looking to. I am ONLY looking for the turbo boost option. I can't find the answer anywhere and asus help line is on hold for hour.

Thanks!

The CPU and mobo will do it itself. Yes, you can't overclock it, but it will Turbo Boost by itself. Just let it do it by itself. You don't need to try and make it.

Ok so how do I get it to 3.8? I am really looking for directions here for the bios turbo boost. Thanks

It does it manually. You don't need to do anything to make it do so. If you want to monitor it then you could download a free software like Open Hardware Monitor. There you would be able to see your Clock speed. You'll see it fluctuate but I'm sure it hits 3.8GHz
