I'm experiencing some weird performance issues with my laptop while playing Farming Simulator 22. Usually, it runs hot, around 85-90°C, and I get 60-100 FPS when it's plugged in. But recently, it seems to be capped at 66-70°C with FPS dropping to 30-60, even while plugged in. I suspect thermal throttling, but it's odd since it never reaches really high temperatures anymore. It's like the power is limited from the start, and I might not even be seeing the temp spikes quickly enough to notice.

Check your power settings! Sometimes, they default to lower performance, which can limit your CPU's capabilities.
This sounds like a model-specific issue since you mentioned it's a Gigabyte laptop. It could be acting up intermittently, so keep an eye on when it occurs. Also, have you tried checking the Gigabyte control center for fan settings and performance modes?
It might be that your laptop's fans aren't configured correctly. Sometimes they just need a little adjustment to keep things cool and running at full power.
