[SOLVED] Turbo boosting laptop

[jay01-25]

Hello. I am trying to play destiny 2 on my laptop, I have Intel hd graphics 620, 8 GB ram, and a i5 7200 2.5ghz processor. The game requires that I have higher graphics and better processor. I know it will be difficult to get better graphics for the laptop but it says it can be turbo boosted to 3.1 ghz. That would make it somewhat easier to play. If I turbo boosted it, would I be able to play it somewhat easier and if so, then how? It is an Acer aspire a515-51-563w.

Turbo boost is usually enabled by default, especially on laptops. I think you are going to have trouble running destiny 2 either way. That integrated gpu is much worse than the minimum requirement.

Agreed. Turbo boost should just work by default when it's needed. You could download something like cpu-z and that should show you. (I haven't used cpu-z in a while but it was a good one).

But would it help a little

No, because your cpu is not the limiting factor. Boosting the cpu to 3.1 does nothing if the igpu can't keep up.

No problem. Good luck gaming!

It will turbo automatically if needed and within thermal and power limits. If it’s not turboing then it’s either not needed or there is a thermal/power limit you have already reached.
