Description

AC - Processor Throttle

DC - Processor Throttle

CPU throttling or processor throttling is the process when the CPU attempts to prevent damage due to overheating. If the CPU temperature exceeds the specified limits, the system throttles down the CPU for cool down. This process takes place when the computer is idle or when no critical tasks are executed on it. The CPU switches to a lower frequency for optimal consumption of energy and to ensure minimal noise from the fans.
