[v7.0.0] How do I make my shiny new white Unraid-box go higher than CPU power C-State C3?

Featured Replies

Hello Unraid-experts!

 

I am totally new to Unraid. I have built a new system and now I would like to optimize the power usage. I did read a lot and tried several settings, however I do not reach C8 or C10.

 

 

Powertop

 

I used this guide here to install powertop and make some adjustments to the mainboard settings:

 

As for now, I only reach C3 (usinge SSH instead the webbrowser-GUI-terminal does not make a noticable difference):
