Sudden FPS drops

Already did that in August and last month- Also bought a laptop cooler to cool it down.
Temperature of my laptop right now is 50 degrees, yesterday it was hanging between 70 - 78 degrees at the end of the day. Didn't had any lag/fps drop yesterday- But like I said, its very random.

many intel 9 and later series notebooks begin to throttle at 70c and then hard throttle at 80c.

Weirdly enough I had no problems when it was between 70 -80 degrees.. o.o I'll just keep an eye on it and I will post a screenshot when the fps drops again.

Temperature is around 70 - 80 degrees rn, no fps drop.

Look, I know not everyone knows how to open a laptop. It's just a few screws around the bottom. After opening it, get an air can and blow the dust out of those fans and heatsink. Dust is the electronic biggest enemy, it blocks airflow to allow cooling.

Throttlestop can no longer undervolt notebooks that are completely up to date with windows updates or bios updates, the microcode was updated to prevent the cpu accepting VID reductions. (a knee jerk reaction to a security vulnerability that can't even be pulled off remotely)
