Question Lenovo Power Control Switch & boost, enable or not?

[sakat]

Hi,

I have a lenovo desktop computer and it came with a switch on the top of it. The switch is so you can enable "turbo boost/mode" for the computer. When not enabled the Power Control Switch shows the cpu at 25%(at the cool level). When i turn on the turbo switch it goes to turbo mode level(100%). Should i leave this switch on turbo mode or as normal?

Sounds like something you might want to switch on & off on a per use case. Watching a move - off. gaming - on! ...

Most likely the switch adjusts the fan curve of your PC, eg. switch on the fans run faster, switch off it's going to be more quiet. If it doesn't get too noisy I'd just leave it on.
