I've browsed this thread for a while now, alot going on here lol. I got my precision over a year ago, and its been through hell and back.
It came with the standard i7 and t1200. I upgraded it to an rtx a4000. I use ubuntu on it for battery life(with nvidia disabled) unless i am on a charger. I've tried ptm but didnt have great results. I recently put liquid metal on everything, and while the gpu under load doesnt get above 65, the cpu throttles hard(100c) even when undervolted by -75mv, on 330w charger. Dell power management tools dont exist in linux as far as i know. Is there anything else I should be doing in linux/hardware/paste wise to fix the high cpu temps?
EDIT:
I needed to replace my display today and found that the touchscreen/ir cable was between the heatsink and the vrm. after the display replacement, my temps(without changing lm out) is on load maxing 80 under full turbo/40c at idle(50-60 before) OOF
