How come my processor is throttling under load? Power settings are set to performance, min and max processor state are both set to 100%. I recently cleaned my computer out so I don't think it's dust/heat.
This is Windows 10 and I don't think I ever had this problem under Win8.1 or Linux. Has anybody else experienced performance drops with Windows 10?

temperature?
download hwinfo, launch it and see it it's thermal throttling

You agreed to it in the terms and conditions. Stop blaming the OS for collecting information.

Yup

Thanks gents.
There is so much shit to look at, but here are the temps. So it looks like core #3 does in fact have some thermal throttling going on. Why would one core run hotter 3-4 degrees hotter than the others?
I'm not sure what acceptable temps are for a CPU of this generation, I'll look that up. I think the cooler is just stock.

dude, are you serious?
70 should be the max for this CPU under full load. About 35-40 in idle.
Fucking repaste this shit and check the heatsink position.
>>58154496
The max = max limit. You're hitting the limit that's why it's downclocking.
Get better cooler or reapply thermal paste. From the looks of it, it's a stock cooler, so I'd suggest reapplying thermal paste
>>58154496
kek my i5-760 never reaches 70c even with stock cooler. did you apply thermal paste?
>>58154496
Jesus Anon those temps are terrible
Check out the distance to tjmax underneath the temps - there's only 3-4° until it hits tjmax
I'm not sure if this is pre or post throttling but look at tjmax - if it gets 3-4° hotter your computer will shut down to prevent processor damage

>98c
Not even my quad core T420 goes that high even if doing a stress test, what the hell.
>>58154562
this is almost 100C AFTER UNDERCLOCK.
I can only guess the only cooling this CPU has is the cap on the core...

If that's the case then OP needs to change the thermal paste like minge needs to change their tampon while swimming in a shark infested bay

Fug!
Alright, I'll repaste this bitch ASAP, maybe even get a better cooler. Thanks for helping this retard out /g/

it's okay bro; i used to ramp up my 2010 intel dual core laptop to 98C when brute-forcing project euler solutions
