Throttling Problem i7 HELPP

[cheap_shot]

pc cant run at 100% with intel stress test without throttling after 10-20 seconds

temp is at low 50s 

could it be Package TDP too high?

it goes to about 60w  then throttles 

 

i7 2600

biostar h61mlv3

What kind of CPU cooler are you running? If it is a fan cooler, is the fan running? Did you remember to peel off the plastic cover? Sounds like a cooling problem to me.

90% this is your problem

 

what power supply are you using?

 

Are you sure it stays in the low 50s during the stress test?

yes i just put on new heatsink

csgo was running 46 degrees and it still throttled

coolermaster tx3 evo

temps are mid 40s during games and it still throttles

No vrm cooling and whatnot on the little power delivery setup there is. Wouldn't be surprised if that is the issue as a lot of cheaper h61 boards had issues with i7's.

Gonna need a more exact model than that

 

but I still think the motherboard is the core issue. biostar makes bottom of the barrel trash and h61 is the lowest end chipset possible for your (at the time) high end cpu. grab a used p67/z68/z77 motherboard from a decent manufacturer like asus or gigabyte if you can, even if the problem is the power supply the motherboard you currently have is bound to give you issues eventually.

was doing it to my i5 also

From some googling the only cpu's that didn't give issues were i3's.

cant it be some shitty bios setting limiting power

pretty difficult finding a 1155 board over here

Oh my that is a garbage town psu right there. If you can get something like hardware monitor and check vrm temps whilst playing or doing a test.

my hwmonitor doesnt show VRM

motherboard temp is low 50s when throttles

Doubt it, your motherboard is probably physically unable to provide enough power.

strange , it says it can handle i7 3rd gen K processors yet cant handle my 2600

Just because it says it can and it can handle it in theory doesn't mean it can actually handle it. For example plenty of amd 970 chipset boards COULD technically handle the 8 core fx chips but few could actually handle them without breaking or having major issues.

just because it's supported (your cpu works, does it not?) doesn't mean it's going to run well.

lol true .. it handles it well on powersaving mode 

was just playing ac odyssey at 30 fps

yeah i will get a new mobo

til then ill run on powersaving mode

is there no way to adjust the power settings though?

on powersaving it runs with no throttle but on balanced or high performance it throttles

that would be because on power saving it probably doesn't even try to run at full power so the test tool doesn't detect throttling. as soon as it tries, the motherboard fails to provide it enough power so it is forced to slow down.
