![]() ![]() The speed increase when it’s on for just about anyone other than high-end users is negligible, but the benefits of turning it off permanently are easily seen (and not heard) by everyone. I basically just set it to never use Turbo Boost. I’ve been using TurboBoost Switcher for a while now (Mojave and Catalina). Hopefully, Apple will introduce a Low Power Mode in the next version of macOS that solves the problem without additional software. Unfortunately, Turbo Boost Switcher Pro depends on a kernel extension that won’t be supported in future versions of macOS. Of course, those benefits come with performance trade-offs like lower Geekbench scores-46% lower in single-threaded tests and 29% lower in multi-threaded-and 59% longer Xcode builds.īut most laptop users would happily make those trade-offs while on the go. While he hasn’t performed battery life tests on the 16-inch MacBook Pro, he estimates 30–50% longer battery life on older models. ![]() Anecdotally, he says that the fans do not spin up, and the MacBook Pro runs cool enough to keep on his lap. What benefits does turning off Turbo Boost offer for MacBooks? Arment reports a 62% drop in power consumption and a significant decrease in temperatures on his 16-inch MacBook Pro. (There’s also a free Turbo Boost Switcher that requires more manual interaction but would likely be sufficient for testing.) Such a feature has already been available for iOS since iOS 9, and Arment has found a way to implement something similar with the $9.95 Turbo Boost Switcher Pro, which prevents Intel’s Turbo Boost feature from automatically overclocking the processor for intensive tasks. Sparked by rumors of a performance-enhancing Pro Mode for the Mac, developer and podcaster Marco Arment is calling on Apple to introduce a Low Power Mode for Mac laptops. #1629: iOS 16.0.2, customizing the iOS 16 Lock Screen, iPhone wallet cases, meditate for free with Oakĭisable Turbo Boost to Simulate Low Power Mode for Macs.#1630: Apple Books changes in iOS 16, simplified USB branding, recovering a lost Google Workspace account.#1631: iOS 16.0.3 and watchOS 9.0.2, roller coasters trigger Crash Detection, Medications in iOS 16, watchOS 9 Low Power Mode.#1632: Apple Card Savings accounts, SOS in the iPhone status bar, Tab Wrangler, Focus in iOS 16.#1633: macOS 13 Ventura and other OS updates, 10th-gen iPad, M2 iPad Pro, 3rd-gen Apple TV 4K, Apple services price hikes.
