    GPU Throttle utility?

    I'm looking for a utility/app where I can throttle the GPU. My Studio M1 Ultra is heating up and the fans are getting loud. I rather limit the GPU than deal with the noise. A quick search didn't yield any results, so I'm hoping some of you know a trick to do this.

    MacBook Air M2 throttling

    I plan to purchase an Apple MacBook Air M2, and I would LIKE for it to have thermal throttling for reasons that I do not want to get into. I have seen that thermal throttling is a common feature on the M2 Airs, and that's fine with me. However I wish to purchase a somewhat usable computer too...

    Mac full despite optimizing storage!

    I have 2Tb of iCloud storage. On my MacBook I have 500GB. I keep getting "Mac storage is full" messages which keeps me from getting any work done. With Optimize Mac Storage on, shouldn't Mac automatically "throttle" what's on my MacBook so I can keep using it? In System Prefs, it shows...

    BEWARE! iOS 14.5.1 is Throttling!

    Updated from iOS 14.5 yesterday to iOS 14.5.1 on my iPhone 11. After the update finished, I was playing CODM and noticed the frame rates were horrible. I checked my settings to make that it was set to the max frame rate, which it was. I then ran a geekbench test, and the scores I got were...

    MBA 2020, limit max temp or max clock speed somehow?

    Hi I'm waiting for my order on a 2020 Air base model bumped to i5 cpu. Every day I get big doubts, especially when reading and watching what people say on the interwebs. Let's say heat or noise is unacceptable.. How could I change that? I would be fine having a 2020 mba that maxes out turbo...

    2019 15" i9 throttles below base clock during final cut renders

    Is this normal behavior and just showing how incredibly optimized fcpx is? I was rendering out different clips to export and noticed my i9/16gb/512/560x couldn't sustain base clock speeds. I have background rendering turned off and fans set to full blast. Latest 10.4.8 installed.

    Hi! I've got A1398 Late 2013, I7 4960HQ and discrete GPU. It's overheating and can't boost higher than 2.8ghz despite it should go up to about 3.4. It overheats, despite the fresh thermal paste. I even changed the heatsink and it caused NO CHANGES. Here are the temps (with old heatsink). 1...

    MacBook Pro 2018, Mojave, Throttle issue again

    Hi. I just updated from 10.13 -> 10.14 on the i9 MacBook Pro and now major throttling issue is back. Not like in High Sierra before the fix from apple, but just constant lower multicore clock speed (~2.6 in 10.14 from ~3.0 in 10.13). Cinebench has dropped from ~1050 to ~850 over 10 runs...

    Thermal throttle ? (1.3 -> 1.0)

    Do you have any idea why 2015 CTO(1.3) MB is suffering this throttle? Temperature on this gadget doesn't seem that high, even though the palm rest and bottom area are pretty hot. Swap is going over 2GB and cpu load was usually quite high when this sort of symptom kicks in. Just hope 2017 model...

    Carrier Verizon Unlimited - No throttle after 10 GB tether

    I purposefully used way over 10 GB of tether data to see if Verizon had in fact a "hard cap" on the mobile hotspot. So far, I've used about 15GB of tethering and my speeds haven't slowed down a bit. Maybe they put that wording in just to deter people from using the hotspot as their home ISP?
