Then you have other issues that need addressing. Even with a stock Intel HSF no CPU should ever be getting close to 100c while playing a game.

 

What is the CPU? What is your HSF? What is your case? Where do you live (or what's the ambient room temp)?

If you check core freq you'll notice that its a laptop

Then set non turbo ratio instead. It's set for 3ghz when on all 6 cores on default. You could try lower or raise that and see what it does

i already lowered it from 41 to 30 bro

Not a problem. The issue I have is that by undervolting the CPU you're not actually fixing the problem, you're simply bypassing it.

 

If its a laptop then I'm going to suggest it needs a good cleaning, the fan and vents are probably clogged up with dust.

Maybe check clocks while in game download HWinfo64 and keep program open. Set to default and start over. Good luck

Yes try different clocks. What does it run by default? Try that and lower 0.1 at a time

>139MHz GPU freq

it's your GPU what causes the framedrops, are you really using your dGPU?

Here I'll leave you a link so you make sure the game launches with the GPU

Also, I suggest you to DDU using this guide

The CPU is no problem, you can set it withhigher clock speeds

oh wait what .. ? well i do have the latest nvidia drivers .. i also did ddu once , about a week ago.... what should i do then . btw rn its 1.6k

OH i just realised it drops to 100 - 300 when there are fps drops

[totodile]

im having frame drops problems in all games, and someone just spotted out that my gpu mhz ( or whatever it is ) drops and thats what causes my fps drops , its normally 1.5k+ but it drops to 100 -300

 

idk how to fix it since i didnt find anything in google yt , can someone help me ? ( btw i did ddu my drivers a week ago + resetted windows twich in the past week)

when gaming my gpu hits %100 for a few secs about every minute , which causes fps drops , how do i make it stay at %70 - %80 usage ????

Lower settings.

generally, you want your GPU to be at 100%, or near it, to ensure your CPU isnt being overloaded and have framepacing issues if you lack threads

 

but for your question, limiting FPS or turning down graphical setting will help

i skimped through your previous posts

A . i have reinstalled windows twice wiping out all the c drive , B. yes i have tested also csgo and gta , both have frame drops.

 

The problem is it isnt %100 load all the time , its abt %70 and suddenly it jumps to %100....    my nvidia control panel settings is prefer maximum performance if that helps

can i see the CPU usage graph in msi after burner right after the freeze? individual cores

gpu usage too

ram usage too

 

and disk usage in task manager too
