Well, as it is it throttles at 65° so much that it can't even handle Quake 3. It's basically unusable.

WTF 65 c don't sound right. Are you sure it's actually thermal throttling and not power throttling? My P1 throttles it's CPU when it's drawing too much power, but hwinfo reports it as prochot or thermal throttling when I disable prochot.

Yeah, been through a whole lot of troubleshooting and complaining at Lenovo. Eventually I gave up. Getting a Steam Deck cured me of wanting to use the laptop for gaming.

Fear is the mind killer. Since the deck I am truly free to game
