Is that better? Quoting yourself?

How hot does the CPU/GPU get?

Heat or power limitations?

there is no heat limitation whatsoever

Isn't this maximum temperature of 94 degrees the problem?

And that's your answer. It's power limiting to 15w after a very short burst duration. It can't boost higher than 2.0GHz and stay under 15w.

Yup all notebooks throttle back to conserve power...

Intel turbo boosty stuff means that it can draw 40 watts temporarily for short periods of time
but for longer drawn out performance it has to run at 15w
