So basically while playing high intensity games (for example Battlefield 1, GTA 5, FH5), when CPU reaches around 75c, the fps starts dropping to around 20-30 from 60. Tried undervolting and doing some other tweaks but nothing seems to work.
I don't know if it's a coincidence but I got my laptop serviced at certified Lenovo shop, the technicians cleaned up the fans and repasted the laptop with Arctic MX-4, since then I've been experiencing thermal throttling. Before servicing my laptop, the laptop's cpu temperature would reach at a max of around 80 c without any throttling and the FPS would stay at 60 mark (for example: ) . I remember playing modded Skyrim without any throttling issues. After cleaning/repasting it started to throttle. Did some benchmarking while playing Battlefield 1. When the CPU reaches 75 C mark (I suppose it exceeded 79 C, turned on turbo for a short time, this is the reason for 90c+), the fps drops from 60 to 30
In the options I set the PROCHOT Offset to 0 and locked it, but it doesn't seem to work, it is still thermal throttling
Specs:
Intel Core i5-9300h 2,40GHz
8 gb ram
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1650
Here is the configuration for ThermalStop program
