    My s200e with an i3 3217, throttles down to 800 MHz cpu and 350 on the gpu after about 10-20 seconds on full load. Judging by 3dmark tests on the web this is not just my machine. Is there any remedies to this before I return it. Temps are about 85C, system does not throttle down if running a single thread like if you run prime 95 with 1 thread.

    on x202e - 206 bios
    fresh win 8 install

    but it did it on 204/205 and 206 bios
    and on original win8 install

    temps and cpu speed confirmed in cpu-z, realtemp, and intel extreme

    Have you set the GPU's control panel settings to max performance? And is this happening on batter, adapter, or both?
