Hello,

My 2 week old surface book 3 ( i7-1065G7) is now throttling at a very low speed of .19GHz.  

I have a standard mouse plugged in, and a Microsoft USB-C Travel hub connected.  To the travel hub, i have a 2nd monitor connected via VGA cable.  This system worked well until i plugged in an Ethernet cable to the hub from my router.

I have unplugged the travel hub, and have restarted the computer 2 times now with no luck.

    @FiniteRex - Are you using the 13 or 15" model?  Just curious if it's one form factor or all form factors experiencing the issue.

    Same pb here.

    I have my Surface from 3 hours.

    CPU is blocked to 0.19Ghz

    After XPS 15 9500 issue, and this I think it's enough for me.

    I will finish with MacBook Pro.

    I don't understand with this price how is it possible to have issue like that.

    Surface book cannot be use with a cpu at 0.19Ghz

    Bye Surface Book 3

    A link to this Surface Book 3 Driver Installer please?

    Ok so have applied v20.051.9924.0 and rebooted...No joy, machine still throttling the CPU for no reason. 

    looks like it will be going back to Microsoft and buying something else. Poor show from Microsoft but right now it is a £3000 door stop, useless.
