Hello, it seems your CPU might be experiencing thermal throttling. You're seeing lower clock speeds, which is common when overheating. For the A520M-HDV motherboard, you can try adjusting the BIOS settings to lower the voltage or frequency. Check the manufacturer's documentation for specific instructions on underclocking or undervolting this model.
It would be useful to understand the CPU cooler and current temperatures. Given the condition of the motherboard, it's likely you're throttling power instead of overheating. Undervolting won't resolve this issue, and the system will adjust itself to lower performance. Because it's an A-series board, many CPU tuning options are restricted, making it unlikely you can change voltages or GPU settings. If you still wish to experiment, navigate to the advanced settings, find the AMD Overclocking menu, and select the Curve Optimizer. Set a negative offset to apply undervolting.
It's not thermal throttling; it will slow down at 90°C. As discussed earlier, you're more likely experiencing power throttling because of the motherboard's constraints with such a strong CPU. It's not perfect, but 81°C won't cause thermal throttling.
Well, we aren't entirely sure about the power throttling, but based on what's being used, I'm pretty confident. As discussed earlier, your @RONOTHAN## has an A-series board, which means CPU settings are probably fixed—so you can't adjust voltages or power levels. You should check the BIOS to confirm if the settings are locked. The solution would involve upgrading to a motherboard with better power throttling capabilities.
I captured what's really occurring, perhaps you can find something in this video. Utilizing Cinebench and HWmonitor CinebenchTest.mp4
Power throttling occurs. The best solution might be directing a fan straight at the VRM, though this isn't always effective. The definitive remedy is replacing the motherboard.
