Rog 5 throttles while gaming

Well after LTT and GSMarena have noted throttling I was still wondering how the phone would perform in genshin impact. Someone finally used perfdog to note the FPS down over a longer period and to nobodies surprise I guess, it throttles. Red magic 6 seems like a much better for gamers at this point.

There was no major dip in performance.

And?
You think genshin impact only runs on cpu? All he does is stress the cpu while the gpu isnt doing anything.
Why do you think does the rog5 get crapped on by the rm6 above? Because the rog5 throttles under loads like genshin impact.
Taking only 1 out of 2 major components and stress test it isnt a throttlingtest.
