I used aida64 to find out whether my laptop is throttling or not but to my surprise my temps went up and down but my cpu usage was 100% through out but when i checked it in task manager the cpu usage was also dropping from 100% to 30% but it wasnt showing in aida64. New to computers and if it is throttling then what options do i have to fix it

Only in the task manager it was showing the cpu usage drops it shows a constant 30% usage
Not in aida64 any reasons why it just said overheating detected also i didnt clean it from 5 to 7yrs

Considering it's age it can be dust buildup. What are the temps of the machine during aida 64?
