In short, yes—it's a common behavior. Clock speeds can fluctuate in gaming due to various factors like thermal throttling or power management, even without overheating or other issues. Temperatures stay low, and no major changes are noticeable.

It depends on the games he was playing and the tools you're using to check the clock speed.

When the game doesn't require the CPU to operate at maximum capacity, it won't run in full tilt mode.

Clock speeds remain consistent only with a consistent, steady workload. Typical tasks cause both the CPU and GPU to fluctuate in performance while applications run. Normal behavior.
