Turbocore doesn't really exist, because CPUs go to the lowest clock they possible can to conserve power anyway. There's no point in having 4 extra cores and disabling them either.

They'll clock whatever cores are on the chip as high as they can at while not exceeding the design limits for power and heat and then as low as they can when the workload is off. Ignore turbo modes.


I'm suggesting that they "permanently disable" (read: remove ) the additional 4 cores.

Essentially producing a CPU with 2 memory controllers per core
