I was tired of Windows 10, and opted for a light weight (Intel internal graphics) linux distro. I have several distros on my servers, so I’m familiar with Linux as a system. But Windows was way faster than MATE. I had turbo monitor installed and could see the speed increase with heavy loads. It peaked nearly every time I throw a eg. MS Access big SQL query or some Photoshopping.
I have a problem with this. I have installed intel microcode driver. I have cpufreq on the desktop bar, and its set for Performance. I have a i7-4700mq which should run on max boost at 3.4GHz, but I never see this under heavy load. The most I get is 2.66GHz, but it tips below 2GHz frequent. Is there a fix this, is turbo mode enabled? I’m not a novise, I use the console often. I want to use Bluefish, Gimp, Apache, PHP and MySQL for developing Joomla templates. But I need a fully working PC with MATE.
Thanks in advance.
