Windows 10: CPU Utilisation Keeps Throttling Down

I have no idea how this came about, probably cause of Window updates, though I reinstalled windows and it didn't fix that.

I tried doing power options, physically cleaning CPU and reapplying thermal paste. So far, nothing is working and the

following problems that come with this are:


Sudden freeze in programs and crash/non-responsive. I can still click around but nothing is interactable.


Have to physically press the restart button as the "Start" menu is not interactable. If I manage to press restart from Start Menu,

It stays on a "Restarting...." loop forever and have to physically press the off button.


I am able to use chrome at its minimum potential but if I want to do something intensive on chrome or edge,

it crashes.


If I am playing a game, it would suddenly crash/freeze after playing it for a bit.


Specs:


IntelR CoreTM i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz

Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080

Motherboard: B150M-E PRO


The picture below shows the spikes and keeps throttling down whenever it goes over like 30%

Win10 CPU Throttling

Win10 appears to throttle the CPU down when it gets too hot. This is probably a good thing (I figure it prevents the CPU from melting down). It seems, though, that Win10 doesn't seem to recognize when the CPU has cooled back down, so the CPU remains in
a throttled-down mode indefinitely. I haven't figured out a way to reliably get Win10 to reset the throttling. As a work around, I have downloaded ThrottleStop which allows me to override Win10's behavior. Of course, I now have to manually watch the temperature
to ensure that the CPU doesn't overhead, but it's better than having an unusable CPU. Is anyone aware of a solution to reset Win10 throttling so that I don't have to use a third-party product to do it? Better yet, has Microsoft acknowledged the issue and
provided any guidance on when this issue might be corrected?

In case it matters, I am using a Dell Laptop E6410 with an Intel Core i7 M 640 CPU.

 

Win10 CPU Throttling

You should be monitoring temperatures anyway

I have not noticed any weird throttling

I use ssd's and a high performance power plan with the proper ventilation and cpu cooler melting a cpu is not likely going to happen

Your computer would shut down before that would happen

Of course stock cooling from manufactures especially laptops all bite

 

Prevent Cpu throttle on Battery

Hello,

I recently upgraded my Laptop by adding an SSD with windows 10 pro.

Now I noticed the computer throttles the cpu frequency whenever I'm on battery even on high performance profile.
(In task manager I can see cpu frequency instantly dropping from 2.3-2.5 to 1.2 GHz as soone as I unplug the AC adapter).

The issue is not bios related and It does not happen on Ubuntu nor window 7( I mesured and the cpu frequency does not change when I unplug).

I tried the following:
- High performance profile.
- increased "minimum processor state" in power plan settings to 60% (https://i2.wp.com/www.techconsumergu...ng?w=452&ssl=1)
- Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Power Throttling Settings and I Enabled the "turn off power throttling"


Still windows 10 throttles whenever I'm on battery.

Can someone suggest a solution for this?

Thanks in advance
