Nah, my cpu goes above 25W when playing games. Also, I never experienced any battery drain from playing games.

LOL, Motherboard VR is voltage regulator module, it controls the volt that will be delivered to the cpu.

Something's probably wrong with ur laptop. Mine never does that, I tried playing GTA V, other games, Rendering video, Stress testing the gpu and cpu. Battery never drains, and stays at fully charged.

So, apparently, for some reason, hwmonitor seems to stop the processor from going turbo, it stays at base frequency of 2.2 Ghz. Once i close it, it immediately turbo boosts. Idk why, it's weird. Oh and btw, it actually does reach 45W. I said it was only reaching 35 W because of Hwmonitor. I monitored using throttlestop and it reached 45W. I tried undervolting it and i got a 0.5 Ghz Tubo boost overclock to 3.5 Ghz, originally 3.0 Ghz. Something weird about cinebench that i found out is that at the first attempt, it'll stay at base clock until the middle of the test and then it'll turbo boost. On the second attempt tho, it just goes boost clock all the way. Idk why, but i have to test it twice everytime. Doesn't really matter much tho. I'm glad that the cpu's score got better after the service.
 

Undervolted it, got 1115 cb as the highest score in cinebench
