Hi, |

|
| 3 |
I googled this and found some other people asking the same question... |
| 4 |
But I didn't find the answer. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I am using linux kernel 2.6.36.1 vanilla to run on a AMD Phenom X6 |
| 7 |
1090T/ASUS Crosshair IV Formula system. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I enabled "ondemand" CPU frequency scaling givernor in the kernel and |
| 10 |
"Cool'n' Quiet" in the bios of the board. I also enabled "Turbo Core" |
| 11 |
in the bios (which says the 3200MHz is max and 3600 MHz in case of |
| 12 |
Turbo Core being used.. I disabled C1E. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
After Linux is booted (AMD64!) and idled, the CPU is running at 800Mhz (nice!) |
| 15 |
and at 3200 MHz when system is under load. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
But: |
| 18 |
With prime I put exactly two cores under load, so normally Turbo Core |
| 19 |
would kick in...but the clock of those both cores show 3200MHz instead |
| 20 |
of 3600MHz.... |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
How can I make use of the Turbo-Core feature unde Linux? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Thank you very much in advance for any help! |
| 25 |
Have a nice weekend! |

Best regards, |
