Hi,
I have a 4 months old MSI GF65 thin with Intel Core i7-10750H with GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop.
While gaming, the performance and FPS was good, but the CPU temps were between 85 and 90 C which seems quite high.
I enabled overclocking in the BIOS and used TS 9.3 to undervolt the CPU (core around -133.8 mV, cache -125.0 mV) which is stable and brought the core temps down to 70-75 C.
However, when testing in TS bench, the PL2 and EDP OTHER are constantly flashing red/yellow. The PL2 is replaced by PL1 after about 30 s (turbo time limit is the default 28 s) and it stays lit.
I tried adjusting the Speed shift EPP from the default 128 to lower and higher, I played around with the Turbo Ratio Limits (setting all to the same as the max 50, setting them all to a lower value also lowering them sequentially from 50 to 38), I changed the PL1 and PL2 values to the same, then higher/lower than the TDP (45W), I also lowered the CPU core offset mV further. I tried Disable and lock turbo power limits, none of these helped.
I read several threads in this forum and the suggestions there did not fix this issue. Here are some screenshots of the settings:
Can you please suggest if this can be fixed somehow?
Can it cause any damage to the hardware if it is operated with these settings, meaning PL1 or PL2 is constantly lit? Games run fine and the temps are good, but I am worried that the PL1 and PL2 is a sign that the hardware can be damaged.
Thank you very much for your suggestions!
