4th gen x1 carbon and its just not doing great. i5-6200U and 8gb ram but it doesn't seem to be performing to this standard.
I ran this test recently with nothing open:
https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/24382918
I thought maybe its a CPU cooling problem but I downloaded Open Hardware Monitor and max temps during web browsing hit 71C/160F and max load 100%.
Any suggestions? I don't want to admit defeat on this laptop.
EDIT: Ran some scans, removed some suspicious files but it ended up being power settings throttling performance while on battery power.
Settings adjusted here:
Power and Sleep Settings -> Additional Power Settings -> Change Plan Settings -> Change Advanced Power Settings.
Thanks to @Phaaze88 for the help.
