My (undervolted/repasted) Laptop, Asus strix scar III 9750h, 2070 power throttles every 20-30 seconds even when temps are around 75 degrees for CPU and 70 degrees for GPU. So for 30 seconds any game runs at 100fps then for 10 seconds fps drops to 20. (Ambient temperature 29 degrees Celcius)
This started around a month ago. Wattage for Gpu drops from 90-115 to 50-60 watts even when cpu and gpu temps are below 85 and 72 degrees receptively. CPU Effective clocks also drops after a second or two (See HWinfo screenshot attached below). Thanks in Advance for all your suggestions.
I have attached my HWinfo logs here.
The only recurring thing I can see from the log consistently when the drop happens is that my voltage:
GPU Input PP Source Voltage [V]
crosses 20V.
I Also used the infrared thermometers to check the temps by opening up the backside. Nothing crossed 70 degrees except the power port/connector jack soldered to the motherboard and the USB Type C port near to it at the back reaching 95-100 degrees in regular intervals. Although the VRMs seem to have okay temps, Losing hope I ran AC Odyssey benchmark while rigorously fanning at the motherboard with backlid open and facing me and it ran without throttling.(LOL)
List of things I've tried
List of things I tried:
1. Undervolted CPU using Throttle stop and capped cores to 3.7 ghz.
2 Undervolted gpu and tested with fixed voltages and clocks from as low as .700 volts 1250mhz to .800 volts 1550 mhz. I tried around 30 different settings some I have listed belowMsi Afterburner capped voltage testing
3. Repasted. Actually repasted twice in 2 days. Results as follows
Part Before Repaste (Max temps Aida 64 stress test with undervolt) After Repaste (Max temps Aida 64 stress test with undervolt)
CPU 89-92 85-87
GPU 78-80 72-74
4 Turned off game bar options.
5.Set CPU to 99% in poweroptions
6.Enabled Performance mode in Nvidia control panel
6.66 : Started Panicking
7. Gave up and reset windows and installed drivers again
8. Didn't work so formatted the drive and installed clean windows and new drivers.
9.Updated bios to Version 308 . Didn't help at all. Also DONT DO THIS!!! Got even more Fu** problems because this bios even disabled CPU undervolting. Crap! (Reset to 307 to undervolt CPU)
10. Tried plethora of GPU drivers drivers : 431 , 444, 445, 451
