Hi there. Your HP Pavilion Gaming 15 shows significant CPU speed drops during games. Monitoring tools indicate throttling even though temps stay below limits. HWiNFO reports PROCHOT EX is causing the issue. Consider checking thermal paste, cleaning vents, or updating BIOS. If problems persist, a cooler or higher-end GPU might help. Let me know what you find!
Some users report that exchanging batteries or chargers may trigger the problem, and the only solution could be turning off BD Prochot. However, this might lead to overheating concerns.
It seems like the laptop is intentionally limiting performance to save power. This is common with some manufacturers. The chances are the power supply unit or the voltage regulator isn't built to handle high demands from both the graphics card and processor simultaneously.
