Since I got my 2016 MBP I've noticed that the processor doesn't ever seem to turbo boost. Even while importing and transcoding media into Final Cut Pro it just sits around 3 GHz which also means its not even hitting its base frequency of 3.3 GHz. Am I just not pushing the machine hard enough to need it or is something else going on. Also its not thermal throttling because even while exporting a project in FCP the temps rarely go above 85. any ideas or am I just paranoid over nothing?
