throttling

when playing video games my CPU clock speed drops from 3.2 ghz to 1.6ghz after a few minutes, it then goes back up to 3.2 and then every 2 minutes or so, keeps going down to 1.6 for a few seconds and then back up, I’ve been trying to fix this issue since ages, the games run smoothly on low...

Dear All, I bought my new ThreadRipper 3960X rig a few days ago and I realised that, despite having a decently sized AIO water cooler (Corsair H150i with a 360mm radiator), the CPU runs a little too hot for what it does...or, rather, doesn't do. My idle temperature anything between is 65C to...

Hello! I started noticing some stuttering in a new game I was playing so figured it might just be the game that was causing the stutters, but soon realised all my games were pretty much doing it apart from the more demanding of games, so I looked into my temps and my CPU is fairly high I...

So I've been experimenting with a multiplier overclock on my CPU, the idea was to squeeze some extra performance out for VR until next gen hits and an upgrade is necessary. I managed to disable all the bios stuff that was blocking me (like powernow etc), enabled custom p states and HPC, put it...

Just did a factory reset on my laptop, and all of a sudden I started getting massive frame drops in all my games after ~30 seconds of play on average. I ran multiple diagnostics and have come to the conclusion that my GPU is throttling at very low temperatures: around about in the 64-65 C range...

Im currently using i5 8300h undervolted to -120mv using XTU, cpu temp is good, thermal throttling is mostly gone but power limit throttling is near constant. It gets really annoying. My turbo boost power max is set at 45w and turbo boost short power max is set at 78w. Question is, how do i get...

Hello, I've had my computer for 4 years now running perfectly fine. I moved my pc to another house yesterday and suddenly I'm getting CPU Throttling and CPU temperature reaching 99 degrees. This is under load and idle. Never had these issues before. Did virus scan, sfc check in cmd, updated...

I just recently build a new system with an i7 9700kf and an Asus rog strix z390-f mobo. But I'm having issues with the cpu throttling down to 4.2 GHz on all cores after 15 seconds or so of running Cinebench r20 (which results in a score of around 3200 compared to 3600 that others get with...

Guys - I am at a loss here. I am experiencing FPS drops and I cannot diagnose the root cause. The FPS drops kick in after about 10 - 15 mins of gaming. I will see FPS drop from >200 to 50-100 FPS. Importantly I am not seeing any thermal or power throttling at all when monitoring through...

Hello. I'm using a Dell Inspiron 7577 (2018) with i7 7700HQ and 1060 graphics card and 4K display. Although everything seems to be working fine (except the keyboard), I'm quite unhappy about the performance of this laptop. Whenever I unplug it from AC adapter, the performance of the laptop is...

My r5 2600 goes down from 3.7 to 3.5ghz at 84-86c as I checked at my task manager. My room temp without AC is 32c when using it, it goes around 27c. I'm using the Tecware Nexus M case, I opened up the front panel of it exposing the mesh filter to have more airflow because it was suffering from a...

I own a Razer blade 15 with the 1070 max-q released in 2018 and I have been getting a lot of power limit throttling on the CPU (i7-8750H). One of my friends has an MSI GS65 Stealth with the same cpu and almost all internals except the gpu, which is a 1060. We have run cinebench scores and have...

My customer's CPU. I built this machine for him in 2013. The CPU had no issues when turboing to 4.2 GhZ. Back then it had Windows 7 on it. This year he wanted upgrade to 10. But now the CPU is stuck at low clock speeds. It's in high performance mode both in BIOS and in Windows. Not only that but...

AMD Ryzen 7 2700X cpu cant even reach its base clock speed. Idle running at around 2.7GHz but drops to around 0.6GHz when doing tasks as simple as opening up a new web page. Temperatures are cool and nothing else is running, it seems the more load it receives the lower the clock speed drops...

I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 (gaming) and I've been recently having issues with the CPU appearing to throttle while i try playing games. Though it says nothing in task manager, in XTU I can see that the package tdp will drop from ~20W to around 5W, the processor cache frequency dropps to around...

Hi, I just bought an ASUS laptop yesterday. The model is ASUS TUF Gaming FX505D. Specs are RTX 2060, Ryzen 3750, 16 GB of RAM. I have another desktop which has a GTX 1060, 16 GB of RAM and an Intel i5-7400. I've tried only one game so far on both (DotA 2) and I was getting about 20-30 less FPS...

Here we go again. So, just last week I solved my problem of overheating due to a lack of airflow and cable management. I was able to play the instance of the game that previously ran at 85-90+ at 70-80, which was great. However, upon further testing, my GPU still overheats, or runs at very...

I have a HP Pavilion laptop with an i7-7500u and a gt 940mx. It plays games as expected although runs hot, about 50c when it's been idling for a bit and the heatsink has equalised temperature, up to 80c when stressed. At this temperature I'd expect some thermal throttling, which it does, going...

So ive been playing the new call of duty and i had noticed my GPU clock speed kept lowering itself even though i have set the GPU to run at maximum clock speed from the nvidia control panel. The GPU in question is a watercooled Aorus RTX 2080 super. It hits 77 degrees Celsius and does not...

My pc specs ; i3 8100 gigabyte gtx 1050ti ( not overclocked) 4 gb ram 2400mhz mobo h310m s2 60hz AOC monitor no cooling system So, I bought this pc around may 2019 and I have been facing this issue ever since., nor I am able to pinpoint the issue. Whenever I try to play a game (eg- gta v)...

Hello, (sorry if im in incorrect thread) My laptop always frame dropping in all games, even after i undervolted it. I think it was caused by Power Limit Throttling. The frame drops esulting in very unpleasant gaming experience especially in competitive games like R6 or CSGO. Im not quite sure...

To start out I have 1Gbps fiber internet. I was getting full 1gbps on my computer up until the last windows update. I tried to roll it back, did not good my issue. I updated drivers, did not work. I can not get above 500 Mbps, it will normally sit in the low 400's. 3 other computers and 3...

So I am fairly new to the scene of overclocking and like anyone else I am trying to get every bit of performance I can out of my CPU. I have a well used FX-6350 and I'm trying to push it to 4.4Ghz. When I use the lowest voltage that is stable for this hertz, I hit the max temp under 100% stress...

I'm running a Gigabyte Aorus 1080 Ti with a i7 8700k, on 1440p monitor. On most games I will usually average between 80-120fps, however I have been running into a strange issue. For a seeming unknown reason, my fps will drop from the above mentioned rates to 60ish fps and then finally to as low...

Hi, I just recently build me a new gaming pc. But my problem now is that my GPU just uses 50-60% of its power in most of the games I play. I wonder now if I could be a bottleneck of my CPU or something else. Temperatures are fine I checked that. My take is that the PSU might be throttling the...

When playing demanding games, or even just running a stress test, Thermal Throttling occurs regularly for me. In this pic you can see the chips' behavior (taken while running around in circles in a city in Assassins Creed: Odyssey): The chip starts to throttle itself even though the absolute...

Hello, i have bought a computer in January and until now it was all going well, but all of a sudden, the graphics performance just dropped overall. CSGO for example, where i used to have 250-300 fps consistently, now i sometimes have 100-150 and it never goes higher than 210. Then when i used...

Hello, I expect the majority of users here know that in example Ubuntu (and a lot of more both open-source and closed source software) supports using torrents to download their software because it is popular enough to be slow at certain peak hours given downloading by their Datacenters, so I...

Hello everyone, my laptop behaving weirdly in recent days, cause it always do this 'hiccup' every once in a while and never happen before I tried update nvidia driver, reinstall (?) chipset driver, even uninstall latest win10 update (i thought it messed up my laptop) but none of it worked. my...

I have 6700K 4ghz and asus maximus hero VIII Motherboard I OC it to 4.6 ghz & 1.4v. With overclock system never ran more than 72ºC. CPU idle makes system stutter, a single program maxes it out ~100 load & slow games (games that had 144fps now jump from 0-90 fps with any action)/system(cracking...

Hi All, This is my first post here. I have scoured the internet for a solution for this but to no avail. Anyways, I have the GTX 1070 equipped MSI Trident 3 with an Intel i7-7700, and a 330W external PSU. After successfully managing a stable undervolt of -165mV, and running a stress test on...

I bought a lenovo 720s-15ikb with a i7-7700hq and a gtx 1050ti max-q. I already knew there were some throttling issues with the laptop and many people had fixed it pretty easily. The issue was the laptop would underclock the gpu and cpu so that power draw would be under 90W(the power brick is a...

Hello, I have a very annoying problem and can't figure out what's wrong. I've gathered some information and stats in hope that it'd help. For quite some time I was having a problem with throttling of some kind. After playing some games for an ~hour, it begins to drop frames every few seconds...
