Overcoming the 5GHz speed barrier

The most powerful of the series is the Intel 10 Gen Intel Core i9 – 10980HK. It comes with 8 cores, 16 threads, and 16MB of Intel Smart Cache. The highlight of the processor is the Turbo Boost speed of up to 5.3GHz. But only two of the cores can achieve this speed when the following two conditions are met:

  • Thermal Velocity Boost (TMB) is turned on
  • CPU temperature is maintained at or below 65-degree Celcius

Under the temperature limit of 65-degree Celsius, the TMV can boost the clock frequencies by up to 200Mhz.Intel 10 Gen H-series mobile processors

Three other Intel Core i5 processors make cross the 5GHz mark with a turbo boost up to 5.1Ghz. One of them (i7-10875H) features 8 cores and 16 threads while the other two (i7-10850H & i7-10750H) feature 6 cores and 12 threads each.
