owning a dell latitude e7440, i was expecting to be able to do normal tasks without lagging.
I was wrong.
I installed a fresh copy of Windows 10, and updated all the drivers to the latest version (Even used a previous graphics driver, and an intellimodded driver without avail), but after a short while of chrome surfing, or light gaming, the frames drop significantly, and usually never go back up until a restart occurs (sometimes that doesn't work either).
What I realize from this is that the intel GPU was stuck at 200 MHZ after a short while, and will never go beyond that frequency.
thru my little research, I've found out that my CPU had a 15 watt power limit, and would throttle after a while of pushing the cpu past 15 watts.
however, whenever the cpu and gpu get clocked down, they don't manage to go back up, even when the temps run down to 60-70 and the cpu power wattage is at 9-12W.
How can I release this lock so that the GPU can perform consistently throughout my session?
Or at least, how can I have the GPU run higher than 200 MHz during anything slightly graphic/cpu intensive? (Non-Demanding Games like League of Legends, or FL Studio, Chrome)
specs:
core i7 4600U
12 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM
256 GB SSD
