Hello everyone, I hope this post finds you well and safe.
I first installed Throttlestop last year, because when I was playing games, older and recent, my computer would choke each 15seconds. I read many posts and saw many videos, directed to other people's problems that might work with my case (undervolting and so) and, in the end, this software was amazing, to say the least, since it removed the fps suddent drops and the choke effect.
However, I'm looking for a more concrete advice. I would like to maximize the performance of my laptop as much as it allows me. I have a HP Pavilion 14, with an Intel i5-8250U, integrated graphics and an Nvidia 940MX. I do know this is not a gaming laptop but any improvement would be welcome.
On stand by I get yellow limits (I would guess from my own configurations), but when doing TSbenches, it quickly becomes red for long periods. How can I fix this?
Ps: Temperatures are, currently, not a concern since I renewed the Thermal Paste (NT-H2), removed the back cover of the laptop and put it on top of a cooling pad (it sounds as my computer will take flight at any moment, receiving multiple complaints from my loved one). I've previously removed completely the Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework before installing Throttlestop because it was throttling the computer on it's own. I also have no HP drivers, because they don't update them since 2018.
Bellow I attach my settings in TS.
Thank you so much for reading, kind regards.
