Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 and Forza 7 on PC

Having this enabled seems to cause massive frame rate drops.

As soon as I disabled this, either by opening the app and unchecking “Enable” or by right clicking on the icon in the system tray, and choosing “Disable” made the game run perfectly.

This is supported on the following Intel Processors

Intel® Core™ i7-6950X and i9-7980XE Extreme Edition Processors
Intel® Core™ i7-6800K, i7-6850K, i7-6900K, i7-7820X, i9-7900X, i9-7920X, i9-7940X and i9-7960X Processors
Intel® Xeon® Processor E5 1600 v4 Family

Just an FYI

Yeah that’s basically overclocking, same with “Intel® - Extreme Tuning Utility” , FM7 really seems to hate OC-stuff.
