HP Recommended
Product: HP ENVY - 17t-ae100 CTO
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

Could you consider an opinion below ?

 

Specs :

Model : HP ENVY - 17t-ae100 CTO

CPU : i7 8550u

BIOS Ver. : F.28 Rev.A (Latest)

 

As per intel website, TDP of the processor is 15W, TDP-up is 25W (w/ 2.0Ghz Frequency)

And my laptop is set at TDP-up setting. (25W, 2.0Ghz Freq.)

 

However, there is a difference between other vendor's i7 8550u laptop.

 

Ex) A*** X542UA Laptop : TDP-up (25W) setting is same, but Max Power Consumption is abt. 35W

 

while 17t-ae100 has 28W of Max Power Consumption.

 

And it makes more throttle and lower performance.

(4.0 Ghz of Turbo boost is getting meaningless..)

 

I think 17t-ae100 has very good air-cooling system for CPU, there's no reason to lower Max Power Consumption making lower performance.

(CPU Cooling fan always runs at lower speed)

 

 

Could you consider to increase Max Power Consumption for CPU?
