your pc is experiencing heavy performance issues, dropping about 50% compared to its potential. while you suspect dust buildup, the system remains cool at around 40°C during load. on 3Dmark Time Probe, FireStrike shows a combined score of 17k, which is significantly lower than the average of 25k. your GPU appears normal, but the CPU is underperforming by half or less of its expected level.

I don't have a motherboard, and I can't share links. Let me know if you need help finding one!

The most relevant reference is cinebench R23, tested at a single run from cold. If performance is noticeably below average, it could indicate a hardware or firmware problem. Should it be within normal ranges, a software or operating system issue might be causing boosting behavior problems or overheating when CPU and GPU are under load.

I didn't understand how to share the link, but I captured a screen shot of them and sent it here.

We haven't confirmed the exact motherboard yet. Based on the CPU speed, it seems like you might be using an A320 board.

You mentioned having an A520-HVS. That's a specific model! What would you like to know about it?

Find the most recent system information on AMD's website. Check if the BIOS supports resizing the bar, verify RAM compatibility with XMP profiles, confirm dual-channel support, and see if the system uses a dual-channel configuration.
