Tegraspeed

Okay..... Guess I'll just go with RMA then.. Thanks guys

XTU shows thermal throttling but it isn't stable, the thermal throttling warning keeps blinking every now and then, but when the CPU gets into 0.8 GHz, Power Limit throttling Message turns yellow and thermal throttling is negative

How do I get rid of thermal throttling after all these repairs. Just picked up the laptop yesterday from service,

Thank you guys for your replies, I got a bit more info on the problem here, thought this might help. WhatsApp Video 2018-09-28 at 11.32.15 PM.mp4 WhatsApp Video 2018-09-28 at 11.31.44 PM.mp4

RMA'ing the laptop sounds good , so this Unit is faulty is it?

Dell 'Authorised Personnel' claims that intel assures safe temps of laptop are up till 100c. But i Just got my Fan and heatsink unit replaced with a Thermal compound Repaste

Hey guys, I'm facing intense power limit throttling in Dell 7577 gaming laptop. Specs: i7 7700 HQ; Turbo boost up to 3.8 GHz. Nvidia 1060 Max-Q 6 GB VRAM Intel HD 630 256 GB SSD, 1TB HDD Windows 10 build 1803 I've handed over the device to dell support many times and they weren't able to resolve the issue at all rather than forcing a clean install of OS every single time and declared that they fixed it. The Temps are under control and i ran the Task manager and intel XTU to monitor the CPU-GPU performance graphs. Turns out every time the GPU utilization goes up to a higher number, the CPU frequency throttles down to 0.8 GHz. for a period of 10 to 18 seconds. It's really annoying that everytime this happens, the FPS for games (PUBG,Witcher 3 , CS GO, Warface ) goes down to almost 8 FPS and the audio starts distorting into a soundpop routine. I've been strolling through a lot of forums and wasn't been able to find a fix for this problem at all. Undervolting and thermal repaste seems to quiet down the issue for a bit but its not permanent.Some say that the windows build 1709 started messing things up but I'm still not sure about it.For some, removing the battery for 10-15 seconds seems to do the trick but i tried that and its BS. Is it going to be fixed with a BIOS update? Any of you out here experienced the same issue and found a solution please help me out. Thanks
