I've been tweaking my Windows Power Plans to bring my Macbook's (2019 15" Vega 20) cpu usage down (along with the fans) during gaming.
The unfortunate thing is changing the maximum processor state below 100% allows me to control it to from basically idle performance to max w/o turbo boost (e.g. like 500mhz to 2ghz).
The problem is I can't control Turbo Boosting and have it boost above the base clock of 2.2ghz without boosting the most it can in the thermal headroom. So there's a huge jump from about 2ghz to 4.2ghz.
2ghz seems fine for plenty of games, but there are others that start to chunk and 3ghz would be great and still bring the fans down a little.
Any advice on software to control boost targets/ghz limit?
