Here's the link and it only works when you have Intel Turbo boost enabled.
Seem like a pretty good gadget.

It's not really turbo per say.
Okay, it is Turbo in the sense it's the 21x multi instead of 20x.
But it's a forced speed; always 21x198; no fluctuations.

In your BIOS are you running Intel EIST, CIE support?

No.
How Gigabyte allows the higher multi is thru use of Turbo.
So Turbo is technically forced @ one multi higher, but it cannot clock lower.
That's why the gadget reports Turbo is active.
It technically is; just it is forced.

You know what would be cool? If the turbo boost shut off the other 3 cores completely and just added all the speed from those cores to one single core effectively creating a uber fast single core machine clocked at 10+ghz. That would be sweet

you wouldn't know if your CPU was idling at 33c, if that's what realtemp and other temp monitors showed, then it's not going to be accurate. It could be 10c hotter, or 10c cooler for all you know.
yea the gadget looks like a waste.
