Greetings from the Intel team. Thank you for your question. 1.7ghz is the base frequency of the Intel® Core™ i7-1255U processor and can reach a Max Turbo Frequency of 4.70 GHz. CPUs do not always need to run at their maximum frequency. Some programs depend more on memory to run smoothly, while others are CPU-intensive. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology is an energy-efficient solution to this imbalance: it lets the CPU run at its base clock speed when handling light workloads, then jump to a higher clock speed for heavy workloads.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for the question. The HP 15-dy5073dx laptop has a 12th-generation Core i7-1255U with 12 MB of L3 cache and operates at 1.7GhX by default, but can boost up to 4.7 GHz, depending on the workload.

This particular CPU has a total of cores, consisting of 10 Performance-cores and 2 Efficient-cores. The 1.7Ghz rating is for the Efficient-cores, while the 4.7Ghz is for the Performance cores. This type of design allows for lower battery use (meaning more battery time between charges) for low CPU tasks, such as email, but also enables ramping up the CPU use for more intensive tasks, such as video editing.
