#How to remove dell precision 490 power supply drivers
(As of I have found and added a new, permanent solution (solution 1) and I would recommend that one the most - you may want to try solution 2 first, however, if you want to quickly see if disabling the drivers will improve anything) Now, the solutions to get rid of the drivers.

(Please note that sometimes speedstep will re-enable itself so you may need to disable it again.) I recommend setting speed shift EPP to 96 to get high clock-speeds when you need them without your pc going on turbo when only looking at the desktop.

Its taken over half a year but finally, FINALLY I have managed to fix the power limit throttling that cripples performance throughout the Inspiron laptop line-up (as well as the G3/G5/G7, XPS series and even laptops from other manufacturers from what I hear.) On the Inspiron it seems especially bugged, lowering CPU clock speeds to even 0.8 GHz after ~30 min of gaming with large load on GPU and CPU.īasically, it is all down to the Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework drivers - the idea of which is to limit CPU performance to get good temperatures and give the GPU headroom, but in practice they just hurt performance when you need it most for no real reason.īefore doing either of the below solutions, install throttlestop and undervolt your CPU (I use -110.4 mV but all CPUs have different thresholds that they can reach due to the silicon lottery.) I also recommend using the "TPL" window to limit clocks to something lower (I use 3 GHz on my i7-7700hq but newer CPUs and laptops might be able to go higher to do this change the MAX under miscellaneous to 30 or whatever else you feel gives a good balance between performance and thermals) if you do not do anything else to help temperatures like repasting or using a cooling pad, otherwise you may reach over 90c consistently which is not something you want to be doing (thermal throttling will still kick in to stop the CPU reaching TJMax - around 97c but keeping it so the CPU doesn't stay constantly above 90c is probably a good idea if you want to continue to use your laptop for more than a few months :P).įinally, before doing either solution you should disable speed step and enable speed shift in throttlestop which is pretty easy to do and there are tons of explanations out there on how to.

HOWEVER, as this post is one of the first results when searching for how to fix power limit throttling, and DPTF seems less common on newer laptops, I have included a potential solution to fully unlock your laptop's TDP that I have been told at least works on the Predator Helios 300 with the i7-10750h - scroll down or ctrl+f for that). If your laptop is already hitting Intel's recommended TDP and you are just searching for a way to get above it then the main subject of this post will not help you. For example, Intel's recommended TDP for the i7-7700hq is 45 W - see Intel® Core™ i7-7700HQ Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz) Product Specifications - but on my Inspiron laptop this power limit can be go down to below 15 W. (Additional note - the below guide is for fixing a specific type of power limit throttling that occurs below Intel's rated TDP for the chip.

This thread is archived now :/, if you are having problems or need help feel free to DM me as it seems comments cannot be posted anymore. STILL WORKS AS OF (that's for y'all American folks :P) Many of these tweaks also appear to work on the Dell Precision and XPS laptops. From what I understand, the solutions given here may work on these new laptops but there also may be some other throttling that some select people are affected by that is not related to this. Note that the below post is for the Dell Inspiron Gaming line of gaming laptops that are no longer available directly from Dell and have been replaced with the G3/G5/G7 laptops. As the situation has remained unchanged for years at this point, I doubt all of this will become outdated but God only knows what Windows 11 will break. Due to this, I will likely not be updating this post anymore. In 2 days from now I will personally be upgrading from my Inspiron to a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro.
