Most likely so it uses less power when idle or when barely being used.

The atom x5 uses a newer gen of the intel mobile graphics chip. It’s at least double the performance. The base frequency is just the lowest setting it’s capable of running at without causing graphical issues in the running OS, mainly windows.
