Your processor's power limits (PL1/PL2) appear to be set to an unlimited value. This means the CPU is allowed to draw as much power as it wants, with no enforced safeguard beyond what the cooling and voltage regulation can sustain. While this can unlock maximum performance, the processor may run hotter, consume more energy, and experience increased electrical stress over time.
This configuration is often applied automatically by motherboard manufacturers through performance-enhancing profiles. Even without any user changes, many boards ship with these limits effectively disabled by default.
We recommend reviewing your power limit settings in the BIOS or in the software provided by your motherboard. Restoring sensible PL1/PL2 values (typically aligned with the processor's rated TDP) can help lower temperatures, reduce power consumption, and extend the long-term reliability of your CPU.
1 device(s) have no driver installed, so Windows cannot use them at all. This is very common on a fresh Windows installation, where the chipset drivers have not been installed yet.
Windows ships generic drivers for common hardware but not for chipset controllers, card readers, or manufacturer-specific devices, which have to be installed separately.
Install the chipset driver package for your motherboard or laptop from the manufacturer's support page, then run Windows Update. The Drivers button in the Software section lists every device still waiting for a driver.
Your graphics driver has not been updated in over 6 months. You are running version 456.71, released 45 months ago, while a much newer version (475.14) is available.
Such an outdated driver can cause crashes, instability, and serious performance issues.
Updating to the latest driver is strongly recommended to ensure compatibility and stability. Download the latest drivers for your graphics card here: NVIDIA Drivers
The partition C: (on disk Samsung SSD 950 PRO 256GB) is almost full, with only 19 GB of free space remaining. With so little room, Windows may struggle to stay stable or apply future updates.
You can free space using the built-in Windows cleanup tool or by removing applications and files you no longer need.
