Hey I'm totally new to this community! I'm having some problems with my cpu. When idle it will run at around 4.1GHz(45-50c) which is lower than the advertised boost clock, and when I run a stress test with prime 95 my cpu will immediately drop down to 3.6GHz and stay there. After I turn off the stress test cpu is around 80-85c and the cpu immediately goes back up to 4.1GHz. I'm just wondering what might be causing this frequency drop. And I am on an omen system so I have just about no control over cpu voltage in BIOS or anything like that. Oh and I did just install the noctua fan controller so that my fans actually spin above their lowest rpm but I don't think this would haver anything to do with it.
Edit: I have at nvidia rtx 3060, and my main question would be is betting cooling would maybe fix this issue because I have a nocua air cpu cooler on my list of things to get but this also doesn't seem to correlate 100% with the cpu temp.
