I have a gaming laptop HP Omen 15, model ek0022nl, bought in 2020. Here's the main specs: CPU Intel® Core™ i7-10750H , NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 , RAM 16 GB, SSD 1TB, Windows 10.
Last time I used it to play games was months ago, and I remember having the same problem that I am writing to you now.
Basically, today playing Atomic Heart (with High graphics and shadows set to Medium) I noticed that the fps keep dropping from 120-130 to 50-60 every few seconds, even in non-chaotic situations with few elements on screen. It happened also with Warzone months ago. Looking at Omen Command Center I found out that CPU speed and voltage are extremely discontinuous, they peak downwards cyclically.
I want to specify that the laptop is undervolted to -0,090v through Omen Command Center. Months ago I had the value set to -0,120v with no issues and relatively stable framerate. Then I updated to Windows 11 in August, this problem appeared and I switched back to Windows 10 and since then, the problem remained.
Someone told me that it's thermal throttling but it sounds strange: the CPU while playing Atomic Heart never goes above 75°C, and even when the laptop was new it always reached those temperatures, with no fps issues. It is well ventilated, I use a base with fans and when I play I put always the internal fans to maximum. I can't understand how I could resolve.
