Hi everyone,
I currently have an i5-9400f (w/ stock cooler) in my PC and I have the turbo boost setting turned off in my BIOS which brings the clock speed down to base clock of 2.9GHZ. This keeps temps at around 65 degrees average while gaming, but it of course affects performance.
I mostly play E-Sports games (CSGO, Fortnite) in which I would like to get the most FPS as possible and the turning turbo boost off affects FPS quite a bit during playing. My question is, is it worth to turn on turbo boost and increase clock speed to 3.9GHZ which increases FPS and performance by A LOT?
But the problem with this is that the CPU temps average from 75-80 degrees during gaming with occasional one second spikes to 83 or 85 degrees.
