Can you install turbo boost on an aw17r3 that has a i7-6700hq?
In BIOs, I only see enhancements to be enable for CPU and Fan. If I am unable to download turbo boost, what can I expect enabling the CPU enhancement? When the fan is enabled, if maxes out, so thinking that's not such a good idea. Can you give me any insight as to what CPU enhancement will do?

I downloaded Turbo boost monitor to determine that I do in fact have Turbo Boost Technology. Thank you all for your help and assistance.

If there is no BIOS option to Enable or Disable Intel TurboBoost on your Intel i7-6700HQ Processor, then TurboBoost is always Enabled and always active.
