Im using an Asus TUF A15 laptop
so i have ryzen onboard gpu and an nvida gtx 1650, i have this really weird bug where sometimes when i open hwinfo it shows Performance Limit - Power - Yes
but when i flash my asus bios it goes away and no longer gets limited
flashing my bios is the only way so far which ik how to remove the limit.
Why does this happen.
And it actually does get limited when i dont flash my bios to remove the limiter my gpu's performance is horrible

When limited or when it's not limited?
I'll check the specs soon but when it's not limited it behaves normally and draws suffiencent power when it needs to and low power when it's idle
When it's limited it draws I think 30watts I'm not entirely sure but it's capped at whatever figure it draws even when running a game or idle
I'll check soon

very sorry for the delay
heres how it looks like without limitation and with no use currently i only have discord open on my laptop
im not sure what changes it to becoming power limited it just happens

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong here.
Laptop GPUs being power limited is considered normal; they only have so much available normally
Just run 3DMark and post the result here

then we can tell if the laptop's fine orn ot

old screenshot but this is how it looks like when power limiter is active
ill run the benchmark but i dont think there would be any issue right now

Power monitoring/sensors on the GPU are broken
(a 1650 at 300 MHz drawing 66W is physically impossible)
(However, because it is seeing that it's drawing 66W, it self-throttles to oblivion)

If this doesn't fix it, and neither does a clean Windows re-install, laptop's considered broken
at least you can "work around" it with a BIOS with unlimited or extremely high power limit, but keep in mind that your power usage metrics will be useless
And the GPU may get hotter than normal/power supply load may be increased, so pay attention to them
