So I have a HP Probook 450 G6 with i5-8265u and I am using the Intel XTreme tuning utility to increase the allowed power to 20W from 15W, and it works..... for about 20 seconds and then it goes back down to 12-15W limit. Any idea why that is happening? Temps stay at or bellow 70C at full load when it is at 20W so I dont think temps aer the issue.

Have you disabled turbo-boost in the BIOS, could be that overriding the settings. That processor should be fine up to 25W.
