Listen, I checked out Task Manager and Resource Monitor, and I can easily see that the CPU usage maxes out at 12% and never goes over that limit except after a cold boot, and then only for a few minutes. I thought it was definitely some internal hardware throttling due to a thermal issue, but then it would have to affect the Linux OS as well, wouldn't it?
- rejectfinite 4y agoThat does sound strange. Might be some weird laptop/driver shit. My desktop is built and the only Windows laptop I use is a corperate one with a custom Windows image from IT. But Windows "walmart" style laptops for home use have always been kinda sus due to all the bloatware on them. Might have needed a clean Windows reinstall.
