Now, if you really want to be more precise about throttling, you can use a process counter: https://github.com/opcm/pcm. You can run these commands in a terminal and see how much power your CPU is using and that's another indicator of throttle. Some workloads will hit the power ceiling of your CPU without clocking all the way to the turbo frequency. A good example in my experience is prime95. Even with adequate cooling in a workstation tower and xeon processors, my cores tend to run below the all-core frequency.
