Ideapad 310 max cpu freq never goes above 2.08ghz

[Aakash singh43]

I am doing some benchmark test on lenovo ideapad 310 and acer e5 575 both of them has 7200u, mine says max freq is 2.7ghz but never goes above 2.08 ghz, whereas acer one it stays at 2.7.ghz

i believe this is due to manufacturer setting/lock,probably crippling the speed to reduce heat/noise from the laptop.max 2.7ghz is usually for 1 core only.multiple core usage will drop the speed to its base clock.

If you are looking at cpu speed in task manager, then it is often wrong. You need to check in cpuz.
