I'm using 2019 hp pavilion 15 gaming with i7 9750H and GTX 1650. The laptop always freeze and buzzing at the same time when heavy gaming and only figure recently that the cpu constantly overheat. Im using throttlestop to monitor the temp and it shows that its thermal throttling even when idle the thermal limit lights up sometimes. Tried undervolt, lower the turbo boost frequency, nothing happen until I disable the turbo boost the laptop now stable without any freeze and buzz. The fan is clean (speed cant be adjusted) , thermal paste already replaced this month. Honestly at this point I think turbo boost is just a gimmick. I still have to manually turn off turbo boost if I want to play games on the laptop.

What thermal paste did you use? Most popular thermal pastes will fail and start to pump out within the first couple of weeks. Order some Honeywell PTM 7950 and do the job properly. PTM 7950 does not have the short life span that many thermal pastes have when used on mobile CPUs.
