Sometimes during torture, one cpu go would go sub 100% usage and back up.

 

Is it Normal?

Usually that's indicative of some degree of thermal throttling. Check your clock speeds to see if you're dropping clocks.

It’s protecting itself.

It is still running at max speed tho.

It’s not just about heat, it’s about current too.
