Chupa –
using the ThrottleStop I was able to change the burst time from 6w for 10 seconds to 15w for 65535 seconds.  This change was seen using HWiNFO64

Although the TDP was not changed (still seen as 6w) the max burst was changed and there was a significant difference seen in terms of performance.  Using Throttlestop’s benchmarking tool, stock time was 250 seconds, with the change applied at 15w, the time returned was 92.2.  Massive difference.

So Throttlestop works for the N3350, you might want to update your diary. 😉

the n3350 is often choosen to keep the power usage way down. it has half the cpu capacity of the n3450 and often comes with a total locked bios. I tried the same N4000 2processores instead of 4 and even throttle stop could not get it faster. it was locked to 6W and not over 60ºC – the throttling would set in. It was a lenovo 15.6″ and was horrible slow. Took me 5 min to test and bring it back.

 

Awww, bummer…

There’s just gotta be a way, maybe a different memory location to modify? If only I could load in a custom bios, but that just sounds like a bad idea in general.

Thanks man! I wonder if I could try using ThrottleStop on it.  Although I have no idea what parameters to modify under ThrottleStop.  I looked at the interface and had no idea where to begin…

Hey everyone!

So…

I have an Apollo Lake N3350 CPU and I tried the memory patch .exe file and to no avail, still just 6w.  It’s an ECS LIVA Q mini computer, check it out, it’s insanely tiny.  It has a heatsink and active fan as well.

Any suggestions?

Also is there might be a possibility I could just do it manually if I knew what word or byte in a certain area of memory to look for to modify?  Not sure if the exe is applying the change to the right memory location for an N3350? Or is it all the same regardless of Apollo Lake model? (I’m assuming no?)
