![]() ![]() If all four cores are used at the same time, the CPU can only overclock by one step (133 MHz) (only if the TDP is not yet used to capacity). This way it can even outperform fast Core 2 Duo processors in these applications. Due to this automated overclocking the low clocked i7 can especially score points in old applications (e.g., older games) which only use one core. E.g., if only one core is used to capacity (and the cooling system is sufficiently sized) the Core i7-820QM can be overclocked from 1.73 GHz to 3.06 GHz. ![]() ![]() Depending on load and temperature single cores of the CPU can be clearly overclocked. Because the i7 CPUs use relative low base clock rates (1.6-2.0 GHz), the Turbo Boost technology already introduced in the latest Core 2 Duos becomes more important.
