HP Omen 35W has a maximum power usage limit.
Checking if you can exceed the 35W TDP on your laptop with an i7-9750H (rated at 45W)
By default it's PL1, delivering 50 watts, unless power saving is activated. The active setting is the 50-watt limit.
My CPU is locked at a high of 35W. I need to adjust it to 45W, which is the standard setting for Intel.
Verify if the BIOS includes settings for this. If not, consider adjusting the TDP in Intel XTU—provided your laptop is compatible. You might also explore Throttlestop as an alternative tool.
I already checked the BIOS settings, but the available power options are only 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W, 30W and the default. Switching to XTU or Throttlestop doesn't actually alter the TDP.
Did you explore the ThrottleStop FIVR Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limits option? Apply the Lock setting in the TPL - Turbo Boost Power Limits area, assigning 45W for long sessions and 60W for short ones. Within the TPL window, adjust the TDP Level to 0 and enable the Lock feature. The Configurable TDP Level can be configured in several places. If the EC enforces this, you won’t be able to exceed these boundaries using ThrottleStop or any software. Should these restrictions persist, you’ll need to exit ThrottleStop, remove the configuration file, and restart your system to reset the settings. Would you like me to turn on the Log File option in ThrottleStop so you can review the issue? Please attach a log file for your next update. Too many laptops are becoming less intuitive.
