problem: i factory reset my pc so I could add a silicon power 4tb m.2 ssd to it. i added it and downloaded hitman 3 on it. it nows says the cpu is throttling and the maximum frequency on cpu no longer hits 100%. there is a lag and stutter when i play anything and frequncey never goes above 30 %. i can no longer play a game and watch a video at same time. did i mess something up with the install
I have tried: to reduce the maximum tempature (did nothing) switch it back
turned off turbo in bios (did nothing ) switch it back
tried to reinstall windows locally ( didnt help the problem)
ran many troubleshooters around cpu and everything said no issues found
Problem Start: after i factory reset it
i installed the sillicon power 4tb m.2 ssd. (after it started getting laggy i deleted the games off of it and took it out my pc.) idk what i did wrong plz help.

Try to remove cmos battery for 1-2 minutes then reinstall
Or find the clear cmos header and short it for 15-30s
clearing cmos is a pretty standard troubleshooting technique.
Cmos provides memory saving capabilities for bios, bios controls how motherboard behaves so including cpu
Clearing cmos means clearing bios settings to default
If the reason of your cpu behaving like this is corrupted or wrong bios value then cmos reset will fix it
