Frequent Question: How Do I Set Minimum State Processors in Windows 10?
Contents

What should I set my minimum processor state?

By default, the Minimum Processor State is 5%, which is also the best Minimum Processor State. While the maximum processor state should be set as 100%. Only then, when processing power is needed, all the available processing resource can be used for the important task.

What happens if you set minimum processor state to 100?

My minimum processor state is set to 100%. This means it never runs at a lower clock in a reduced power state. That does not cause a CPU to run at 100% utilization. It causes it to run at 100% clock speed.
