    felceaz got a reaction from petzkub in i7 8750h - Power Limit Throttling - Low TDP Even though cooling is capable   
    My ASUS is the FX504GM-ES74, i see there are lots of variants across different countries. From my experience i can give you some advices:
     
    This laptop won't perform at its best out of the box so if you don't feel like going through a bunch of forums and reading all you can to make it work as good as possible maybe this is not the computer for you. 
     
    This is like a racing car, it has a 0 to 60mph in 5 seconds but that's just a number, that will only happens in certain conditions, so don't believe numbers like this processor should do 3.9MHz all the time.
     
    Also to keep with the racing analogy, racing cars need constant tuneup, if you are the mechanic, this would be great.
     
    If you want this laptop for photo editing or other tasks i would recommend you to get in contact with some colleagues that can show you how their computers are performing, i'm posting a capture of my screen while exporting one hundred pictures with Adobe Lightroom, it only took two minutes and you can see the processor hitting 50+W at that moment, the maximum wattage was 61W, sometimes it throttled to 45W.
     
    So this is something where a benchmark can't really help me, this is real world data.

    Here i share my Throttlestop settings, you can see all the undervolting settings on the FIVR on it's top right corner, i could reach values of -320mV and little less but i found that with -250mV i got better times on TS Bench.
     
    About TS Bench i don't know how it managed to emulate 16 threads but there is a value. When doing a 256M size test on 12 Threads my CPU throttles to 25W for some seconds then releases to something like 50W then goes throttles to 45W that is a behavior i also found when rendering 3D images, it throttles to 2.2MHz for some seconds or early stages of the rendering process then it releases and goes up to 60+W.
     
    My computer uses stock paste
     
    I'm also sharing some pdfs the tech guys sent me, they are in spanish but it has images and are very simple to use, i think the most important thing to do is to stop windows from updating drivers.
