Thanks for posting the output of turbostat for the two OS’s:
Comparing the entry with the largest temperature:
Avg_MHz Busy% PkgTmp PkgWatt OS
2170 99.75 69 13.95 Tumbleweed
2850 99.75 83 22.23 Fedora
I tried the command suggested by @arvidjaar but that file is not on my system, there are other files:
> cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/
> grep . *
energy_efficiency:0
hwp_dynamic_boost:0
max_perf_pct:100
min_perf_pct:16
no_turbo:0
num_pstates:42
status:active
turbo_pct:32
This is when my desktop running an i9700 is running “idle”.
Not my choice, the edit time-out is 10 minutes
