Windows/Bios both set in Performance mode. Though, can temperature really cause such big throttle?

OK, here are benchmarking results (used Performance Test 7.0) Machine A (faster one): CPU Mark: 10382.6/11000 CPU Integer Math: 3878.7/4000 CPU Floating Point Math: 4490.9/5000 CPU Prime Numbers: 1374/2000 CPU SSE: 29.3/30 CPU Compression: 13335.7/14000 CPU Encryption: 42.6/50 CPU Physics: 708.6/800...
