Some bad sensors might cause the motherboard to keep throttling. A defective CMOS chip could be missing the ability to save settings or may already have corrupted data. Boards like Z170/Z270 are hard to find, so swapping in a new CPU and motherboard is often more affordable.

That's what I considered. However, swapping the motherboard might be tough for me. I believe it wouldn't be the hardest part, but fitting the new one in and relinking all the wires could be tricky.

There are numerous video guides available for internal cables. Mostly it involves connecting items with similar shapes. The only notable exception is front panel I/O, which isn't too much of an issue—just a few connectors usually needed. For testing, you only need the essentials and can completely disable the front I/O. You can also jump-start the system by connecting the power switch pins using a screwdriver.
