Always personally disable turbo boost. Especially on laptops

Far better would be to tweak the time constants to your liking, so that you can use the full clock range of the chip, but constrain its sustained power draw for quiet and long battery life.

If I run a game, I limit CPU to about 50% clock speed.

Only way to stop laptop getting crazy hot and fans meaningfully reducing pressure on desk of laptop...
