    Anyone needing FX504GM v308 BIOS, I made a download link and you can once again enjoy using Throttlestop.  ; )

    Make sure to do this update with the file on it on a FAT32 USB stick, go into BIOS (hold F2) at start up and use the internal BIOS flash option there.  It will force update the bios.  Unlike WinFlash it rejected the older version.  This has worked for me when Windows 10 has silent updated it.  Anywho... enjoy!  ^.^

    73°C to 74°C on an 8750H while playing BF1 is fantastic.  Many laptops with this processor are running at over 90°C when gaming.  
     
    Intel considers any temperature under 100°C to be a "safe operating temperature".  That is the temperature that Intel sets for thermal throttling to begin.  Many individual manufacturers have decided to lower that number a few degrees so the CPU is extra safe.  Look at the main screen of ThrottleStop.  It will show you what temperature Asus set PROCHOT to. (processor hot)  
     
    I believe that Asus set the FX504GM to 95°C so your laptop will start thermal throttling earlier than Intel recommends.  This will prevent the CPU from ever hitting the full 100°C that Intel rates these CPUs capable of.
