When locking the CPU to 99% on the boosted profile or using a ThrottleStop profile that disables turbo I get the same FPS increase suggesting that this is somehow directly related to allowing the CPU to boost. My best guess is that with the boosting disabled, more resources can be used to focus on the GPU.
It can be seen from the formula that turbo boost disabling increases average FPS in games on almost all ultrabooks (by preventing throttling). U-chips in ultrabooks have a 10-15-watt TDP and a slight difference between base and turbo frequencies so turbo boost disabling is useful for gaming.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology can potentially increase CPU speeds up to the Max Turbo Frequency while staying within safe temperature and power limits. This can increase performance in both single-threaded and multithreaded applications (programs that utilize several processor cores).
How to Fix Your Low Frame Rate Improve your FPS and gaming experience by making educated tweaks to the right in-game settings. Highlights: Keeping your frame rate (FPS) high leads to a smoother, more immersive experience. Update game software and graphics drivers regularly to help resolve performance issues.
