  A more likely scenario IMHO would have been "Discord causes excessive background GPU usage, causing throttling".

    Either way, it looks like it's Discord's problem when it isn't > more likely I'll agree to disagree here though. That seems significantly less likely to me. I haven't heard of excessive CPU/GPU usage causing throttling, unless it's temperature related. Normally when you have high CPU usage, your clock speeds up not slows down. But in that case, the problem is high heat or 100% usage, not the side effect that happens to be throttling.

      > unless it's temperature related That was indeed the case I was thinking of. It's easy to generate a lot of GPU load with minimal CPU load with some GPGPU process going haywire, for example.
