Thanks in advance!
Post a photo of page Power in BIOS.
Post a screenshot of TPL window from ThrottleStop.
1. Take USB stick and format to FAT32
2. Create directory structure EFI\Boot
3. Download and unzip bootx64.7z
4. Put BOOTX64.EFI to Boot directory.
5. Boot from this USB stick
6. Run command:
setup_var 0x318
7. Make and post foto of the screen with result.
The bios itself doesn't contain power tab, it looks different than other bioses.
Run command:
setup_var 0x1B1 0x0
Make foto of the screen with result.
Reboot, delete file ThrottleStop.ini, run ThrottleStop again and make new screenshot of TPL.
here it is.

[EDIT]
I did another restart (TPL 3)
Run command:
setup_var 0x318 0x2
And make new screenshot of TPL.
here it is:
Set Package Power Long & Package Power Short to 20. Press OK and close ThrottleStop.
Run CPU-Z and HWMonitor.
Start Stress CPU in CPU-Z, wait for 30 sec, make a screenshot of HWMonitor and then stop benchmark.
here it is:
Good. Make the same after
setup_var 0x318 0x1
and
setup_var 0x318 0x0
