2. Overclocking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overclocking

   The purpose of overclocking is to increase the operating speed of a given component. [3] Normally, on modern systems, the target of overclocking is increasing the performance of a major chip or subsystem, such as the main processor or graphics controller, but other components, such as system memory or system buses (generally on the motherboard), are commonly involved.

3. Computer performance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

   In computing, computer performance is the amount of useful work accomplished by a computer system. Outside of specific contexts, computer performance is estimated in terms of accuracy, efficiency and speed of executing computer program instructions. When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved:

4. Performance tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_tuning

   See the main article at Performance engineering. Performance engineering is the discipline encompassing roles, skills, activities, practices, tools, and deliverables used to meet the non-functional requirements of a designed system, such as increase business revenue, reduction of system failure, delayed projects, and avoidance of unnecessary usage of resources or work.

5. Intel Turbo Boost - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Turbo_Boost

   When the workload on the processor calls for faster performance, the processor's clock will try to increase the operating frequency in regular increments as required to meet demand. The increased clock rate is limited by the processor's power , current , and thermal limits, the number of cores currently in use, and the maximum frequency of the ...

6. Benchmark (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benchmark_(computing)

   Benchmarks are now regularly used by compiler companies to improve not only their own benchmark scores, but real application performance. CPUs that have many execution units — such as a superscalar CPU, a VLIW CPU, or a reconfigurable computing CPU — typically have slower clock rates than a sequential CPU with one or two execution units ...

7. AMD Turbo Core - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Turbo_Core

   AMD Turbo Core a.k.a. AMD Core Performance Boost (CPB) is a dynamic frequency scaling technology implemented by AMD that allows the processor to dynamically adjust and control the processor operating frequency in certain versions of its processors which allows for increased performance when needed while maintaining lower power and thermal parameters during normal operation.
