    NM-D521 rev. 2.0 output voltage on CPU coils seemingly low

    Hello, guys!
    As the title says - the board is NM-D521, on the input of the CPU coils I read 1.2-1.3V, which should be normal, but on the output I read around 0.6-0.8V. The laptop bootloops with no picture.
    As of right now I don't have a thermal camera, so I can't confirm a shorted or partially shorted CPU chip. Do you have any other suggestions as of why the output voltage might drop like that?

    CPU may be in speed throttling mode due to a missing thermal sensor.

    Remove all power. Measure the resistance to ground of the CPU vcore voltage.

    Test the resistance from PU5400, ACN to the same CPU vcore voltage rail to confirm if the high side mosfet(s) are leaking or not.

    What is the voltage to ground of PU5400, ACP and ACN? Is each stable?
