PROCHOT could well be the problem.

There have been so many threads on this issue (another one here: [Or Framework 13 12th Gen Intel i7-1280P sometimes running slow - suggestions for fixing the 400 MHz bug](https://community.frame.work/t/or-framework-13-12th-gen-intel-i7-1280p-sometimes-running-slow-suggestions-for-fixing-the-400-mhz-bug/81450/1) )

Seems that it doesn’t matter what OS people are running (Windows or Linux) the issue rears it head rather randomly.

Interestingly, when searching in Google about the CPU itself, the issue has appeared in laptops from other manufacturers.

It almost feels like it is very much a CPU issue which could well be due to things like manufacturing, etc.

If this is indeed the case a replacement mainboard seems to be the only way forward as that’s the only way to replace the CPU in laptops (and this has resolved it for others).
