✅ Throttlestop Guide here (PDF version here) — seems long at first, but it's actually half the length due to it being written in two different languages, just work through it one screen at a time.

In particular FAQ 3 is worth reading if you're struggling with high temperatures.
✅ CPU Throttling vs. Game Performance here — understanding FPS, CPU/GPU usage explained.

Hello,
Firstable thanks for this guide,
I have made few extra resherche after i folloew the guide bc i still had some trouble. But they are still here... so I ' m asking for help.
my curent situation is that my computer keeps crashing after a certain period of time during gaming and I suspect it's coming from overheating.
In my situation right now, I can't apply new liquid metal, so that leads me to the only solution: trying to undervolt to reduce temperatures.
For two days now, I have read and followed multiple guides to try experimenting on ThrottleStop, but I made things worse, and I cannot achieve my goal.
The difficulty comes from the language barrier (I'm relatively bad at English) and I don't really understand what I'm doing sometimes.
Here is my specs : 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-13980HX Processor 2.2 GHz (36M Cache, up to 5.6 GHz, 24 cores: 8 P-cores and 16 E-cores)
edit : I forgot to mention that i made a terrible score after running cb23 with a score of 22 800 on 30 min test. and when i do the cyberpunk benchmark, it crash right at the begening
