i7 Turbo - Tool to test for Turbo throttling

[rge]

Worked great for testing GB boards as well and figuring out what was going on with turbo.

Here is early GB bios F3 with turbo limits engaged. As soon as cpu pulls roughly 107-110W (system pulling 389) turbo begins to throttle, see calculated and msr multis and min/max.




And here is what bios f4 betas to most recent bios 8b does on GB boards, with turbo TDP limit turned off...even if cpu pulling 224W (system pulling 590) turbo is still engaged. I purposely used 1.5Vcore and 4.3 ghz to show turbo stays engaged at high watts. But when cold outside, I can run 4.6ghz with 1.68 vcore and pull 300W per everest, and turbo still fully engaged.

Now if you can come up with a way to make the settings adjustable on a Dual Nehalem board I'll hug ya!
Nothing works. SetFSB has the proper PLL controller in it but when you start it, it grays out and goes into a endless loop/ Need to do a CTRL/ALT/DEL to shut it off.
Ideas? Thoughts? Go away and don't both you?
