I would like to know how to set the minimum and maximum cpu state on ubuntu, like you do on Windows 10 on power settings. Just a way to control the MIPS and prevent CPU overheating when the thermal paste is a little bit worn out:

I would like to know how to set the minimum and maximum cpu state on ubuntu, like you do on Windows 10 on power settings. Just a way to control the MIPS and prevent CPU overheating when the thermal paste is a little bit worn out:
For Intel processor to set minimum idle state to 1 do the following, presumably there are analogous parameters that can be passed by GRUB to the kernel for other CPU states and for Maximum, but I am no black belt in the subject:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
then in that file change
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_idle.max_cstate=1"
sudo update-grub sudo reboot
