The CPU multiplier falls from 34 to 4 (3.4 GHz to .399 Ghz) when playing overwatch. When idle, throttlestop can keep it at 3.4. the decrease starts the second I start the game, when temps are in the 50's.

Intel i5-8250U
Nvidia GeForce MX150 2gb vram

Your VRMs (above or next to cpu on mobo) might be overheating, the only real why to diagnose this is with a thermal camera or some motherboards (msi sometimes does this) have thermal sensors on the VRMs.

I upped the max allowed voltage for my GPU by 5% and that so far seems to have fixed it. Was this a mistake?
