Hello everyone, hope you're well & swell,
I am having an issue with my custom built Elimina Pro 16".
When I first got the laptop, the GPU (4050) seemed to be pulling 85w in games but I noticed that it was performing significantly worse than all the benchmarking videos on YouTube with the same specs. I rememver a 10-20fps difference but whatever. Now some days have passed and I've noticed the GPU is only ever pulling 35w. The CPU (7735HS) is also ever pulling 30w in games which is fine but it is throttling when under 75c. I am at a loss. I have a hunch that this is a power limit setting however it is way too low and the laptop seems to be stuck in "Office" mode all the time.
Switching the power modes on the laptop with its physical button change nothing but the LED since day 1.
The maximum operating temperature for a 7735HS is 95c but mine never exceeds 75c.
It pulls 40w for a second at the start of a Cb23 test and then dips all the way down to 30w indefinitely hovering around 70c.
The laptop also never gets loud when gaming because the temperatures are very low for a gaming laptop in my opinion...
I did a fresh install of Windows today and only installed the latest graphics drivers and MSI Afterburner and the issue is still there.
Power plan on Windows is configured for maximum possible performance. What else can I do?
I'm just hoping to squeeze out the full potential of this machine and I thank you in advance for reading/helping.
Edit: I forgot to mention that I've added another M.2 drive from which all my games are running from.
