[BUG]After limiting the TDP to 44W on the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X, the TDP still peaks at 55W

Describe the bug
After limiting the TDP to 44W on the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X, the TDP still peaks at 55W when running a CPU-Z stress test. It automatically drops to 35W after 1-2 minutes, while the goal is to maintain a steady ~45W.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Set the TDP limit to 44W on the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X.
2. Launch CPU-Z and initiate a stress test.
3. Monitor the TDP reading during the test.
4. Observe the TDP peaking at 55W initially, then dropping to 35W after 1-2 minutes.

Expected behaviour
Maintain a steady TDP around 45W (aligned with the 44W limit) throughout the CPU-Z stress test, without unexpected peaking or significant drops.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

what you are obserwing is probably cpu boost override - temporary higher power limit (common timings of levels - 120s, 8s)
I would try to find a setting for that and change it
