Lol you guys have underestimated my noobness!
I dont have a clue what im doing tbh
The power throttling has only happened since it came back from PCS so presumably they've done something.

Fault Report
I have completed the RMA of your system. I have isolated the thermal issue and have taken several steps to reduce the operating temperature of the CPU.
I removed the thermal paste from the CPU and applied our extremely high end liquid metal thermal compound. This is approximately 10 times better at conducting heat than traditional thermal paste. I have also used the installed XTU (Intel Extreme Tuning Utility) to apply a -0.1V offset to your core voltage. Together this allows the CPU to maintain much higher boost clocks without throttling back due to thermals.
To ensure that the system would remain boosted to an acceptable speed I placed the system on an overnight stress test. This test passed without issue and the CPU maintained a high boost clock throughout.
I am now happy to return the system to you.
