    Hey guys,

    I suspect that my G750JH may be throttling itself.
    Attached is a graph that marks out the area of concern.
    (Core i7-4700HQ)

    The clocks seem to drop when the CPU reaches 86C.
    I'm using Prime95 to stress the CPU.

    Is there any way to disable the throttling, or to increase the temperature where the CPU would throttle itself?
    Do you predict a possible repaste in my future?
    Any other tips or advice?

    Thanks!

    EDIT: I activated the "Power Throttling" graph and it looks like it's power throttling like crazy. I increased the Turbo Boost power max, and the power throttling persists. Is this normal?

    Enable the TDP graph, you will see it boot beyond 47W and then return to 47W after a period of time. This is how intel have designed the chip to act.
