My i7 has 2.4ghz - why when I run PCXS2 does it only use a max of 1.2ghz?
an extra 1.2ghz would make such a critical difference and I really need to understand this issue
Would turbo boost make a difference?
Thanks

TURN OFF SPEED STEP in the bios, cpu wont clock back, but seeing you have laptop that is probably bad idea, So either you not using MAX performance on the power settings and ore not pluged into power adapter then something is wrong on your end, short of the cpu is running to hot which in that cause its gona clock back regardless

HOLD ON NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PCXS2 uses 2 CORES
I HAVE 4 CORES
4 CORES with 2.4ghz
As PCXS2 uses only 2 CORES - COULD THIS LIMIT ME TO JUST 1.2ghz?
If so, could I change it?

you could try to limit the balancing with the taskmanager. set the affinity for pcsx2 to 2 or 3 cores. it migh help.
intel HT tho
