Hello,
I've occasionally read about thermal throttling by the motherboard chipset, completely independent of the CPU's and maybe case's own temperature.
For example in reviews about the mini-ITX board Gigabyte GA-Z170N-WIFI:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R3H6AFBMJO6VGK/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B015IOOJ54
It also quotes at least one real review by SilentPCReview.
Here's another user-reviewer which tries to address these complaints:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1XRKZI9WCXVZ7/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B015IOOJ54
It seems to say it's not due to the board at all and a windows power saving feature? Can it be as simple as that? Why are there specific complaints about the board and why didn't a professional reviewer notice?
How is this stupid issue even possible? And can one in any way see this on the boards themselves? This particular board seems to have a decent passive cooler on the chip.
