Set both "On battery" and "Plugged in" to instead of 100%. This prevents the CPU from entering its "Turbo" or "Boost" clock states. Why disable it?
Disabling overclocking is a safe and effective way to improve system stability, lower temperatures, and extend the lifespan of your components how to disable overclocking
Your RAM will run at default JEDEC speed (e.g., 2133/2400/3200 MHz instead of 3600 MHz). This is slower but stable. Set both "On battery" and "Plugged in" to instead of 100%
Overclocking—operating a computational component beyond its factory-defined frequency, voltage, or power envelope—introduces entropy into trusted execution environments. Disabling overclocking is not merely a BIOS toggle; it is a multi-layered enforcement of manufacturer-defined operational limits. This paper dissects the hardware, firmware, OS, and management engine mechanisms required to irrevocably disable overclocking across modern CPUs, GPUs, and memory subsystems. We analyze vendor-specific lock registers, MSR (Model-Specific Register) hardening, and side-channel risks introduced by partial disabling. Disabling overclocking is a safe and effective way
(Cinebench R23 for CPU, FurMark for GPU). If temperatures drop by 10–20°C and no crashes occur, you’ve succeeded.
