Lead Systems Diagnostic Engineer
Specializes in low-level OS internals, hardware sensor APIs (RAPL, NVML, ADLX), and kernel tracing for Windows and Linux.
Discover how Windows measures power draw, where Task Manager's 'Power Usage' metric falls short, and how to use built-in CLI diagnostics and hardware RAPL counters to pinpoint battery-draining background processes.
Learn the low-level mechanics of CPU thermal throttling, how to read hardware MSR registers and Linux sysfs thermal zones, and how to verify if your CPU is throttling under sustained load.
Avoid installing 400MB motherboard control suites just to read a thermal diode. Here is how to inspect core temperatures, TjMax offsets, and thermal margins cleanly.
