Hi, anyone know how to make the processor speed fixed? basically the P core in 5.4ghz and Ecore 4.6ghz, not sure if this is considered overlock? its the turbo boost clock speed by default if i am not wrong for INTEL I9 285K .

The thing is i dont want to use intel speedstep and speed shieft feature. i was using i9 9900k for 5 year and can fix the clos speed to 4.7ghz, but with this new processos, speed seem varie, when i disable intel speedstep and speed shieft feature. , the clock speed get fixed but only in 3.7 ghz P core and 3.2 ghz E core.
 
Share some pictures of advanced CPU in expert mode and is there something for the NPU? Like to see it!

4.7GHz for a 9gen isn't so bad. :-)
 
i will post foto later, seem i manage the to fixed the core in windows at stable 5.4 ghz p core and 4.6ghz e core, cinemabench r24 test is passed for 10 min with 2500 points , but the voltage seem to low , its static 1.181 is this voltage safe?

Safe yes, but that's the problem too, even by disbling evryting. The core has voltage line, temp and curent line it can't cross, and thats why you don't exide that temp or higher the voltage. You have to know when you set a fix speed, one of the chart f(I), f (v), f(p) will go up and down mor, It lays within the architecture how it react on sertain conditions to keep it stable. The best way to OC a new gen (12, 13, 14 now ultra maybe) is to keep hypertreading, stepping and turbo on. If they still in there for Ultra, that why I am asking to send pictures from it, but I assume it is and maybe more. Ten years ago we where controling the speed, to make it work much faster. Now we do it the other way arround. We set the power limits and control the voltage, take as much as we can the vdrop out and clock it down when temp goos to high. How more stable you can do depending on your cooling system to, the speed it self will wiggle less. Knowing to that other device's are in one way or another connect too and having there own recommendation, but that wasn't diffrent in the past, and now you have an NPU too.
 
Why on earth would you want to used fixed clocks? That's what they've been doing 15, 20 years ago, before they came up with intelligent algorithms to boost the clocks when there is load (different boosting according to the workload), and to lower the clocks and voltages when nothing is happening (for power-saving). If you turn off all those features, you are making your Core Ultra as dumb as a Pentium 4.
 
its related with stability/fps drop in game and a bit of overlock i got bad experience with the intel speed step ,c1e and all other features that control the speed of the processor but this was 8 years ago with processor like i7 4790 gen4 and with gen9 i9 9900k i managed to fix the clock to 4.7ghz stable for 5 years. At this moment with the core speed fixed i also see increase in cinebench24 score to 2500, with the intel speed step activate the score drop to 2400.

Anyway i think you guys are right probably now days this features is already working correctly without affecting performance in game/fps drop/stutter etc, i will wait for rtx 5090 and check the stability with speed step on/off as at this moment there is no gpu in the PC.
