No need to consult any experts. You are the expert of your laptop. If it was my laptop, I might bump the turbo ratios up from 36 to 38 or 40. I like performance. I understand that you probably lowered the turbo ratios to reduce heat. That is OK. Intel designs their CPUs to run hot reliably...

I do not know what settings you were trying or why your laptop shutdown. A properly engineered and functioning laptop should be able to run Cinebench without ever shutting down. If you are using ThrottleStop to increase the MMIO PL1 turbo power limit then maybe your laptop is not happy with...

Some software on your computer is changing the MMIO power limits. When Sync MMIO is not checked, the MMIO PL1 power limit is dropping down to 70 Watts. ThrottleStop is not doing that. There must be some software from Lenovo running on your computer that is doing that. You bought a laptop that...

When you run a test and sometimes it works and sometimes it crashes, that means you are getting very close to how much voltage your CPU needs to be stable. I would use -125 mV for a few days to see if you have 100% stability. If that proves to be OK, try -130 mV for a few days. I prefer to use...

Keep adding voltage until you find a voltage that allows Cinebench to complete without any errors. Try -125 mV for the P core and P cache. If you bought a laptop that has a poorly designed cooling system, you will have to keep reducing performance. Turn on the ThrottleStop Log File option so...

When you undervolt a CPU and your computer crashes during Cinebench, that is a good sign that you have undervolted too much. A crash indicates your CPU needs more voltage to be stable. All CPUs are not identical. After finding a voltage value in a guide, you have to be prepared to adjust that...

Microcode numbers are in hexadecimal format. Each digit will count up first from 0 to 9 and then it will continue to count up from A to F. Look up hexadecimal on Google to learn more. 0x116 0x117 0x118 0x119 0x11A 0x11B 0x11C 0x11D 0x11E 0x11F 0x120 Microcode 0x11F is quite a few versions...

The 97 Amp PP0 Current Limit is the most likely reason for throttling. The BIOS has locked this setting as well as various other settings. This was typical during the 2nd Gen era. The PL1 and PL2 turbo power limits are locked to the default 45W and 56W. They are not causing the throttling...

The left side of the ThrottleStop TPL window shows that this is set to 48. This usually defaults to 56. The next value in ThrottleStop is 48. I do not think it is possible to set this to 52. Are you still using G helper? If you are using both G helper and ThrottleStop to set the turbo power...

It looks like you have installed the latest BIOS update and are running microcode version 0x12F. Perhaps that fix is part of the problem. I am still using an old BIOS version with microcode 0x116. I know BIOS updates are supposed to make things better but after testing a few of these updates...

I have never used G-helper. I have no idea how G-helper and ThrottleStop interact with each other. It might be best for you to only use G-helper. It is not a good idea to have two similar programs writing different values to the same CPU registers. Search other forums. Perhaps you can find...

I usually set the P Core and P Cache offsets equally. Some people get better results when setting the core offset to a bigger number compared to the cache. Hardly anyone sets the P cache to a bigger number compared to the core like you are doing. Your results look good so do lots of testing and...

I do not think you can use ThrottleStop to undervolt if Hyper-V is enabled. I do not use Hyper-V. Try enabling Hyper-V, run ThrottleStop, and see if you can undervolt. Does the FIVR monitoring table Offset column show +0.0000 when you try to undervolt? That would mean that undervolting is not...

Everything looks OK. Turn on the Log File option and run a log file if you have any throttling problems. You can attach a log file to your next post. Some 9750H are stable at -125 mV. Some are not. It is always a good idea to leave 5 mV or 10 mV of voltage headroom to ensure stability. Users...

Intel is comfortable with their CPUs running long term at high temperatures. They are so confident that they raised the thermal throttling temperature from 100°C to 105°C for the Core Ultra HX series...
