Hello,
In my predator is an intel i7-6820HK with  2,70GHz.
Overclocked it should accept 3,2-3,6 GHz.

Heres now a screenshot without overclocking:



Without overclocking im at 3,2GHz
and this is with overclocking:

With overclocking im at 4GHz.

I dont know why, and i think its not rly nice for my CPU.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely
Merkes Andy

    It's the overclosck 3.6 is the stock Turbo Boost, as long as the temperature is ok there is no issue

    Yes that's how it's designed, although it's admittedly not a big difference in performance,  Turning CoolBoost on in Acer Quick Access will also reduce the temperature slightly at the cost of fan noise and elevating the rear of the notebook, or placing it on a cooler stand.  On the pictures the CPU load is fairly low, more the concern is when you see 100% CPU utilisation, as this is when the temperature will rise significantly.
