I7-7700HQ downclocking on low temps ?!?

[Jwal]

My laptop while playing a game has decicided to drop to 1.68GHZ (base 2.8ghz) turbo(3.8ghz) on 40% load while playing this game, Before you ask my temps I am quite confused to why it would need to downclock itself

My temps are 55c on this game and Im annoyed to why it does this.

My laptop fails to reach 3.8Ghz as its max turbo boost should.

Does anyone know on XTU how to increase the turbo boost time or increase the clock speed. Its not an overclockable chip and I was wondering if there is a nother way.

My Bios does not contain intel speed step or turbo boost. Its pretty trash honestly its a inyseik bios I think . Next PC I'm getting will have the i9 8950HK which I can overclock and which can solve the problem Of low turbo boosts
