    Hi, please help me, this laptop give me an headache. It suffer power limit throttling for both cpu and gpu. My spec

    i7 9750H, 2070rtx
    default setting:
    - core voltage offset = -0.050
    - pl1 = 78W
    - pl2 = 45W


    ive tried all below:
    - undervolt to -0.120
    - disable turbo
    - disable power limit
    - increase turbo power limit to 90W
    - reduce turbo speed to 3.0Ghz

    but i still encounter power throttling when playing games. i tried aida64 for about a minutes. it suffer power and current throttling. after i increase turbo power limit to 90W and 60W, no throttling.

    when in games, whatever i do, i cant seem to solve it.
    - temperature is not throttling cus when i disable turbo, cpu run @ 2.6Ghz and temp around 70Degree+ but power throttling keep showing up.

    Have you modified your GPU clock/voltage curve in MSI afterburner? What kind of throttle are you seeing? Have you got charts of it happening?

    ill check again. but the weird thing, core clock is stable eventhough i get power throttle.

    i forgot to check gpu core clock. btw, the throttle is random.

    i also running hwinfo and obsidian fan ctlr in the background. changing fan profile from normal to ec default doesnt seem to differ

    You need to check out what is actually happening before you can diagnose an issue.
