Hey guys
Lately I've been noticing that my CPU downclocks at random times while gaming, causing FPS drops and stuttering.
It runs at 4295 MHz most of the time, but sometimes it downclocks to 800~1100 MHz and other random clocks which causes stuttering.
The only thing that stopped that was to change the CPU minimum power to 100% on power plan settings.
But I don't think that is the ideal solution since it keeps the CPU running warm all the time.
My CPU is not overclocked. It's running at 1.250v.
And another odd thing is that I tried to run some tests on prime95 (Small FFTs), it ramps up the clocks to the max value 4300~MHz at 80c for a few seconds, then my CPU just downclocks to 3600MHz at 65c and stay there.
Is that normal for a torture test?
Is my CPU or Power Supply dying?
I have C-State on Auto.
Thanks in advance.
