My T430 throttling cpu to 1,18GHZ while on power supply
My T430 throttling cpu to 1,18GHZ while on power supply
My T430 is throttling cpu to 1,18GHZ max when connected to power supply no matter which power/performance plan I choose.
Weird is that my cpu gets back to higher frequency when I run it on battery.
I'm using a genuine 65W Lenovo power supply adapter.
Not sure about when problem appeared.. but my computer became slow about 1-2 weeks ago.
CPU temp. ~45 C, HDD ~47 (SSD)
Maybe this is realted to Windows 10 Creators update? Can anyone confirm ?
Thanks

Try a 90w power supply. My educated guess is that you have Nvidia graphics which would require a 90w power supply for full performance.

Thanks for the reply
I forgot to mention that my t430 is not equipped with dedicated graphic card (Intel HD only)
and I haven't changed my power supply adapter

Updating Bios via ThinkVantage System Update fixed the issue!
There were many bios updates I made since I bought the lap, but I'm sure I haven't done any for about ~6 months. Strange.

You might still wanna double-check that if your thermal paste is done for or something, cuz you don't want to destroy a CPU like that
