![]() Go under "Processor Power Management" in the dropdowns, select "Maximum Processor State", and set both battery and plugged in to 99%. Go to your power options, click on your power plan, and click "Change Plan Settings", then "Change Advanced Power Settings". ![]() So I recently learned that there is a flaw in Windows laptops that run Intel chips that make them run massively hot and incredibly slow, and this flaw is ridiculously easy to fix, even if it can be a little time consuming.

Keep in mind that an aphorism is not a LPT.Īn aphorism is a a short clever saying that is intended to express a general truth or a concise statement of a principle. “A marriage proposal should not come as a big surprise, despite what you may have seen in the movies.” “Always be prepared to leave your employer because they are prepared to leave you.” Advice is offering someone guidance or offering someone a recommendation.

I'm at a total loss as to why this is happening. It's really strange how some days, it slows down only once when I'm in the middle of working, but other days, this can happen every 2 or 3 minutes, which is really frustrating since when it happens, EVERYTHING just crawls to a halt and the system pretty much doesn't respond to any input whatsoever until the cpu speeds back up.Īnd yes, I've tried reinstalling windows. I use an audio interface with my computer, and whenever this happens, I have to go to the control panel sounds window and change some setting, any setting in my main outputs and audio works again. ![]() Unfortunately, any time it DOES slow down while I'm doing work, it also causes audio to stop functioning entirely as well. Sometimes, it happens once a day where it goes down to that slow speed, and by the time I've realized it, I start spamming Ctrl Alt Delete to make the computer do something so the CPU speeds back up. Also, this doesn't just happen after I leave the computer idle for a few minutes, it also happens randomly in the middle of me using the computer as well. I find this issue incredibly weird since my dad also has an X1 Carbon 5th gen and he never has this issue. The temperatures are normal and in the windows 10 power management settings, I have the CPU at 100% utilization even when idle, so it isn't the power plan. I've checked in throttlestop and there is nothing preventing the CPU from working at all times, since the CPU is fine when I'm using the computer normally. It takes it almost a full minute to finally realize I'm telling it to do something, and then the CPU speed suddenly jumps up to 3.5GHz(the turbo speed) and everything starts working again. Of course, when I try using the computer after it's reached this state, things are at a horrible crawl. I have a problem with this computer and it is that if I don't use the computer(like just leaving it idle) for anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes, the CPU(Intel Core-i5 7300U) speed suddenly drops all the way down to 0.2GHz as I've seen in task manager. I've scoured google and countless forums to no end, but I still don't know why this is happening. This problem has been nagging me ever since I got this computer: Lenovo X1 Carbon 5th Gen.
