    The "First" fully accidental performance fix just shows how simply complex these things are now,with so many nuances that the general consumer doesn't know about...

    It's good that loading optimised defaults fixed the 25W tdp lock. Unfortunately this wasn't the case for older models, 2019 GF63 and 65 model also suffers from same behaviour. It will boost to 35W for few seconds and gets back home to 25W. Only way to fix it was installing custom firmware which someone modded and posted on msi forums. But I did not install it, instead I mailed MSI regarding this. They asked benchmark report of cinebench which was generated by hwinfo64 that showed 35W for few seconds then 25W throughout. A weird behaviour I found, when I disabled dedicated gpu ( nvidia 1650 mq in my case ), CPU was behaving normally. I think they have deliberately did this in 2019 model because 2018 one with 1050 and 1050ti was absolute clusterfuck with both CPU and GPU thermal throttling as 1050ti was 75W gpu. But 1650 mq only consumes 35W. Okay, so I also sent MSI that msi forum link and some reddit posts for further proof and they sent me their "own" firmware which I feel they sent the same as that guy. I am not sure. After installing that, CPU was behaving normally. It runs at 45W when it requires but as it goes above 90C, I have locked it at 35W max with CPU clock down to 3.6ghz and 3.2 in summers. Now it sustains at whatever CPU clock I set in ThrottleStop. I have seen some 10th gen intel models that runs normally so I think they removed this TDP lock.

    What about resetting ec ? ,because i once trying to oc ram in the bios and my laptop got black screen then i reset the ec and the bios setting got resetted ,but i dont know is the setting got resetted like the first laptop came in or not. i also got msi gf63 that prosesor power stuck on 25w whenever the gpu nvidia active,when i disable nvidia from device manager ,the prosesor can go to 45w stable i dont know why but msi seems to limit the cpu to 25w when gpu nvidia is active but my laptop spec is different from yours,i got i5 10500h and rtx 3050
