Welcome to the forums.

By long convention, posting in ALL CAPS on the internet is considered "yelling." It's hard to read and rude. Please edit your post, turn off caps lock, and use some punctuation and paragraph breaks to make this easier to read and you will have a much better chance of getting help.聽

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.聽 If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Are we sure you aren't thermal throttling under these conditions? What are your temps?聽

ask me about my homelab

on a personal quest convincing the general public to return to the glory that is 12" laptops.

cheap and easy cable management is my fetish.

What cpu do you have? I see i5-8, but that leaves many CPUs it could be.

Keep in mind you're asking for something very niche from an office computer that doesn't even like to XMP ram. What chipset is the motherboard?

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.聽

Okay, so it's a non overclockable CPU.聽

What are the vrm temps and what chipset do you have?

Those are some... very low voltages on the CPU. Is there an ECO-mode setting in BIOS or something?聽
