It's just an animation on blender with cycles. Each frame takes around a minute to render at full blast(slowing down over time as it heats up). Usually, I work with eevee but for this particular clip I need features supported on cycles only. I've found a temporary workaround right now by...

Yeah, lower power plans limit the CPU wattage but the GPU remains unaffected

So, here's the scenario: I need to run a really long render on my MSI GL63 Laptop with a 1660ti. The render might take days and it'll be running 24 hours. I understand 85C is normal for a gaming laptop while gaming but letting it sit at a toasty 85 constantly for numerous days (maybe even a week...

You might wanna check windows power options. The lowest state is 800mhz, and since running on battery solves the issue, I suspect that's the case. Make sure maximum state is not at 0% Reference Image There is another thing that can cause this issue: If you have a Dedicated GPU, then sometimes...

BIOS is up to date, Problem solved for now, turns out it was a bad windows update that I got on the 14th this month. Did a system restore and It's now working fine. Hopefully MS doesn't send out another update to make my life more difficult😅. They always manage to break something.

Okay, I finally found the cause, but need help solving it ! Please Watch this video i have uploaded : Dragon Center Issue As you can see, the cpu goes to low power state only if dragon center is active and in my face and being interacted with. The moment I don't, it slips back to power sucky...

I can understand where you're coming from, it's cool ! Normally, I don't like to deal with so many OEM apps, but Dragon center lets me limit the battery charge to 60 or 80% which is quite helpful... The ONLY theory I can come up with, is that Dragon center had messed some things up. Now, It...

I'm 99% sure it wasn't running in the background. I disabled it from startup and removed all it's triggers from task scheduler. I had xtu running with the CPU drawing 12W at idle. I opened msi afterburner and applied a GPU undervolt (using the voltage/frequency curve) and immediately, the CPU...

That's the wierd part, afterburner does not run until and unless I launch it, so it wasn't running in the background. Though I did apply a GPU undervolt, so maybe that did something to un-mess the cpu ?

Okay, I have no idea what is happening, I just wanted to game for a bit and opened msi afterburner. Suddenly, idle wattage dropped to 1W. For some reason, opening afterburner, solved the issue. But I have no idea why this is the case because afterburner deals with the GPU, it shouldn't have...

Also, there is this eco mode in msi dragon center that sets power limits to around 10 watts. The laptop was still usable and it used to hover around 1.4-1.8ghz. Now it's completely unusable in that mode since it's constantly running above 10W and clock speed throttles to 800mhz. CPU time...

Did a malware scan sometime ago, nothing. Here's a screenshot of Intel XTU

I have an MSI GL63 laptop with an i5 9300h cpu and GTX 1660ti graphics. The battery life has been ok till a few days ago where it gave me around 3-4 hours when watching a movie. Suddenly a few days ago, battery life became terrible ! Less than 2 hours. After some checking, I realised my cpu is...

Yes, I did try a clean install when I upgraded to 1809. Literally wiped the entire drive. I'm trying not to do that again since it's a Crazy Huge headache downloading/installing each and every game and program I had before. Expecially X-Plane 10 Global ! I'll try tenforums but if nothing helps...

I am on latest driver but i have tried older drivers as well. I don't think its a driver issue, cause the primary fault is that its writing directly to ram and not the disk(which it should at some point) I tried OBS and it works fine, but sometimes fails to detect games or sometimes records...
