+# Using thermald to avoid thermal throttling
+Install `thermald` for your distro, on many distros it might be installed by default.
+
+Create the config file `/etc/thermald/thermal-conf.xml` and add the following content to the file:
+
+```xml
+
+
+
+ Surface Pro 7 Thermal Workaround
+ *
+ QUIET
+
+
+ cpu
+
+
+ x86_pkg_temp
+ 65000
+ passive
+ SEQUENTIAL
+
+ 1
+ rapl_controller
+ 100
+ 10
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+```
+Depending on your ambient temperature you might want to lower the `` line to make thermald kick in more aggressively. (65000 = 65°C)
+
+Create the file `/etc/thermald/thermal-cpu-cdev-order.xml` with the following content:
+```xml
+
+ rapl_controller
+ intel_pstate
+ intel_powerclamp
+ cpufreq
+ Processor
+
+```
+
+# Making Fedora respect your config files
+Fedora uses the `--adaptive` option by default, thus ignoring your config files. This might also apply to some other distros.
+
+Edit `/usr/lib/systemd/system/thermald.service` and remove `--adaptive` from the `ExecStart=` line. Then do a `systemctl daemon-reload` so systemd realizes the change. thermald should then respect your configuration files.
