I am using HWiNFO mainly for the detection of throttling on my laptop - because sometimes the throttling is there, even if I am not aware of it, and seeing it in HWiNFO was the best way to tell me that I need for example to lower some graphic settings in some new game, or that it's time to clean the whole thing from the dust. For a longer while I haven't seen throttling in HWiNFO while playing my favourite games and I was a little bit surprised by it, because it was a normal thing in some games like PUBG, but I was like "Ok, I have cleaned the dust and keep my desk nice and clean since then, and that's why it's not throttling even if it shows high temps".
But today, I have experienced my biggest throttling experience of my life 3 times while playing Metro Exodus - for about a half a minute (maybe more, basically until it cooled down from 90something degrees to 70something) all the cores frequencies went from 3100 MHz to 700-800 MHz. I have turned on MSI Afterburner to see it on my display in real time while playing. HWiNFO was opened all the time, by all 3 occurances and... It hasn't shown any info about throttling, not even once.
Could it be a bug from the latest version? I attach the HWiNFO screenshot from my last game, basically I in the past I have seen the info about the throttling even with the temperatures around 94 degrees, now it was up to 98 and it hasn't shown throttling at all, what is more I have seen this throttling with my own eyes, which doesn't occur so often, and I think probably all the throttling issues I had in the past months playing PUBG were occuring still, but were just not shown there.
