DDJ-1000 Popping Sound Update

I updated the graphics card on my laptop and disabled Intel Turbo Boost and the issue is gone.The crackling sound is gone and I'm interested if I can turn Intel Turbo Boost on because my laptop is running a little slugish.

Laptop Specs:

Intel i7 2.90 Ghz
Intel Graphics 620
8 gb ram
250 gb SSD & 1 tb HDD

Turbo boost is only to get your computer to clock the CPU higher when it's being pushed -- there are many other things you may consider addressing before re-enabling the boost.

Like disabling any background processes that may be hogging system resources, uninstalling any apps you don't need, ensuring that your OS drive has at least 10% free drive space for memory swapping, etc.
