What is the Turbo Boost Power Time Window default value

[codrut]

I had noticed that on my SP3 i5/8GB/256 the value for Turbo Boost Power Time Window in Intel XTU is not 3 seconds but 0.00.....96... seconds (the lowest value). Is this normal? Why?

how long do you want it? Isn't it just to provide enough power for applications and then drops down immediately. It's not a constant, maintainable value.

It's not that i want it different, but the Default profile from Intel XTU has it as a 3 seconds value. I am just curios why it's different on Surface.

Yes, I believe it's normal. 9.1 mm thick and SDP is the reason why. Overall performance is better with a i5/i7 U series part running in SDP mode than it would be with the lower powered i5/i7 Y series part in a 9.1mm thick form factor.
