Hello, I'm using an ASUS ROG Strix G512 Li. My CPU speed is stuck at 788Mhz, I haven't noticed any overheating and I've cleaned it again but nothing seems to change. My laptop runs mostly in turbo mode, but the frequency doesn't increase much unless I restart it a few times. Do you have any suggestions or solutions?

@Eilight ThrottleStop highlights VR Current in red, indicating the throttling issue. A voltage regulator seems faulty, and the motherboard may require repair or replacement.

Asus centre might end up being more expensive than fixing it yourself. Check someone who focuses on laptop pcb repairs—an incorrect voltage regulator is usually easy to locate and swap.
