I purchased all my components brand new about a year ago and use Intel XTU to undervolt my CPU occasionally. I realized this issue appears while playing Red Dead Redemption 2. Since I’m not familiar with motherboard tweaks, I rely on Intel XTU. It seems this hasn’t happened before. My frame rate stays the same, but my clock speeds drop. Even when I boost processor core ICC max, I still don’t see improvement. Any suggestions from fellow tech enthusiasts?

Sorry, I didn’t realize that. Could you clarify which choice is PL1 and where it can be found? Also, thank you for your patience.

Turbo Boost Power Max. PL2 refers to Turbo Boost Short Power Max. On a board like the Asus Z390-H, it performs poorly for power-hungry CPUs such as the 9900K or any Intel 14nm 8-core processor. I'm also assisting in reducing the board's performance so you're welcome.

There are still possibilities. How much you need to push PL1 matters. Raising PL2 might also help.

You retrieved PL2 instead of PL1. At full capacity 9900k with stock it generates roughly 170-200 watts under minimal effort.

You should aim for a higher setting, but check the specs carefully. The 95 W TDP is the maximum allowed by Intel, so increasing it further may not be safe or supported.

I will use only an H100i RGB AIO atm.

125w maximum if you prefer not to witness the board overheat (or worse, when it fails to adjust properly). Intel’s TDP is just for appearances; on real boards that follow it, you’ll likely face constant power throttling.

It looks like you're exploring a different topic than the original request. If you'd like recommendations on AIO coolers or need help with something else, feel free to let me know!
