Are you sure vsync is disabled? It looks like you’re getting a very consistent 144fps.
I personally keep vsync enabled, but you should absolutely disable it if you’re testing your hardware since it forces the fps to never exceed you monitor’s refresh rate.
As for throttling, it’s only useful as a diagnosis tool. First and foremost you should be finding other people’s benchmarks of your hardware (cpu/gpu) and running those benchmarks yourself at the same settings. Phoronix is a great resource for Linux benchmarks.
