Intel shift speed - should I use it?

So I bought i7-7700 Kaby lake anf I am optimizing Windows 10 for audio performance.

What I found online was the best way to use CPU was to set the power option to High Performance and min and max CPU to 100%.

This would leave me with the CPU to work at 3.6GHz at all times.

 

Intel updated speed shift to v2 with Kaby Lake, and I wondered if I should start using it i.e. will the CPU at constant base frequency work better/faster/smoother than with Speed Shift enabled?

 

I am using this PC for Roon and HQPlayer.

 

Vinnie Rossi LIO (AVC/Tubestage, AMP Module with built in HPF 100Hz 24dB/octave, DAC 2.0), Harbeth P3ESR, Rythmik F8

Win10 i7-7700 -> Roon -> HQPlayer DSD512- > LIO 100Hz HPF -> Harbeth P3ESR

                                                                                ->LIO  -> miniDSP <100Hz -> Rythmik F8
