    Hi

    I got a clevo p870km1-g with bios flash and ec for cpu 9xxx, in this laptop i got i5 9600kf, in stress test with gpu stress all was fine cpu keep 4.7ghz all core but when gaming the cpu changed this frequency even when it is little solicit I have no power limitation that is present on xtu or throttle stop, I looked at all the settings of the bios I see nothing wrong, I tried to undervolt the cpu it does not change anything, bios stock settings do not change kidney to the problem either, the benchmarks on 3dmark are very good for the coupled cpu / gpu compared to the others so I do not see what to do with other appart you requested to help me solve the problem. Sorry for m'y bad english guys and thanks for all who can help me.

    Throttlestop has the Limit reasons window you can watch to see why there's throttling. Is anything lighting up red on that window when running a game?

    A graph of the behaviour would also help.

    The system is recommended to run with 2 power supplies at all times.

    Throttlestop shows all cores running at the desired boost of 4.7ghz with ~50% utilisation, I'd trust that more than some stat concocted by XTU

    The ss is a bit fuzzy with the OSD text but my guess as to what is limiting your framerate is either:
    - if it says on constant 60fps, perhaps vsync is on
    - if it is constantly over 95% gpu usage, it's a gpu bottleneck

    It shows both the same drops at the same time it's a bit complicated to see in the photo, the game has a limit of 60 fps no v-sync activated, even without the activity the same thing this product then ..

    If you're able to post some pics of all your CPU/performance related settings it may help.

    The bios you are running has all options enabled?

    Yes I believe the dsanke bios typically has everything visible in the bios.

    Not really able to spot what the issue could be sadly.

    As a test, have you tried giving the cpu extra voltage ?
