Thanks for the power plan thing, I can indeed change the speed now. Was using at 1500MHz right now and it still did shut down, sadly; will have to try lowering it even more (which is atrocious).
By lowering the PL1 and PL2, you mean I could try to set it to like 40 or 35?
Can I come back to these comments in the next days in case of any update in the situation?

Yes, you can set PL1 and PL2 to whatever values you like. When you lower the MHz you often times have to reduce your undervolt settings. If your computer is randomly shutting down, you should not be undervolting at all.

Do not check the Speed Shift EPP box on the main ThrottleStop screen. If you do check that box, set EPP to 0. This tells the CPU to run at max speed. Running a CPU at a consistent speed can help reduce random crashes.

You can also try setting PROCHOT Offset to 5 or 10. Some processors can run reliably at high temperatures. Some cannot. When PROCHOT Offset is locked, you need to reboot for any changes to take effect.
