Hi,
I have a nice stable Throttlestop undervolt for my HP Spectre x360 2019 Laptop. It's a skinny laptop, so it's got bad cooling, but I managed to get it to a point where my temps are good and everything runs stable. Undervolted and unclocked, but it's good.
-One problem. When I plug in my Razer Core X eGPU to the Laptop via my Thunderbolt 3 connection, I instantly get EDP OTHER alerts in the Throttlestop LIMIT window. The moment I plug it in, EDP Other lights up Yellow across the window and stays yellow. If I clear it, it comes back a couple seconds later. If I open and close windows and do other stuff, the EDP Other will go red for a few moments.
I'm assuming the Thunderbolt connection itself requires wattage and perhaps I'm limiting my CPU too much, which might be causing the power throttle? In games using the RTX 3060TI in the Razer Core X, I do notice that I have some stuttering at the exact moment the yellow EDP Other lights pop up on Throttlestop. If I turn off the Razer Core X and just play games on the GTX 1650 MaxQ, there is no throttling.
Note: This happens even if I have both my Laptop's 135 Watt Power Cord plugged in with the Razer Core X TB3 plugged in at the same time. The Razer Core X has a 650 Watt PSU, that dedicates 100 Watts to power delivery. But I keep the Laptop power cord plugged in since it has 135 Watts. Not sure what's going on when it connects though.
So my goal is to figure out how to stop the power limiting when my Razer Core X is plugged in and get a more smooth connection and performance.
System: HP Spectre x306 15T 2019 (i7 9750H, GTX 1650 Max-Q, 16Gb DDR4, SSD)
Razer Core X (650 Watt PSU, 600 Watts dedicated to GPU, 100 Watts dedicated to power delivery - RTX 3060 Ti plugged into the Razer Core X.)
Connection Thunderbolt 3 Cable 40 GB/s, 100W
Any ideas how I can stop the EDP Other throttling when I plug in the Razer Core? Or is that affected by something in the motherboard, and not the CPU?
The first 5 pics with my TS stats and config WITHOUT the Razer Core Plugged in.
The two pics at the end are WITH the Razer Core X plugged in and active:
Edit - I should so note that this EDP Other throttling occurs with or without the RTX GPU plugged into the Razer Core X. If I just use the RazerCore X as an empty TB3 dock, it still lights up the EDP Other lights.
