CPU performance dropping and GPU activity reducing during gameplay
I own a 7th generation i7 processor paired with Intel HD graphics 620. During gaming sessions, the CPU slows from 3.0 GHz to just 0.4Ghz and the frame rate drops to 10 FPS. Here are the specifications: I7 7TH GEN 7600U base speed 2.8GHz, Intel HD graphics 620, 16GB RAM. Please assist me.

it is running at 70 to 75 c during high graphics and low fps, while at 80 to 80 c with high fps.
Begin by keeping the graphics settings minimal. This helps maintain a higher FPS while allowing your CPU to utilize its integrated GPU effectively. When testing on low settings, check if the games listed are delivering similar average FPS. If they are, you're on the right track. If problems persist even at low settings, we'll address them further.
