ThrottleStop
ThrottleStop is a Windows-based software utility designed to monitor and manage processor throttling on Intel CPUs. It provides real-time data on core frequencies, temperatures, voltages, and power usage, while offering controls to modify how the CPU throttles during operation. The program is widely used by enthusiasts and has been employed to improve performance, reduce temperatures, and lower fan noise by adjusting voltage, frequency, and power limits.
Historically, ThrottleStop emerged in the early 2010s as a lightweight tool for laptop users facing thermal
Key features commonly associated with ThrottleStop include voltage offset adjustments (undervolting) for CPU cores, the ability
Caveats include the risk of system instability or crashes if voltages and power limits are set improperly.
