Good afternoon, I have just started studying the use of embedded arm linux for single-board computers. I'm asking for help from experienced developers. I have an orange pi lite. I uploaded a prebuild minimal armbian image to the microsd card: Armbian_community_25.5.0-trunk.444_Orangepilite_bookworm_current_6.12.23_minimal.img.xz .After that, I installed mate desktop environment according to these instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/28786-install-mate-desktop-to-minimal-image-blues/. The problem is that the processor heats up very much under load (I registered a temperature of 95 degrees celsius using armbianmonitor) and periodically turns off due to overheating. Please tell me if it is possible to solve the overheating problem by configuring linux (For example, limit the maximum processor frequency or lower some processor voltage) and if so, how and what needs to be configured?

A quick google search seems to suggest that the Orange Pi Lite is prone to overheat.  Obvious question that you did not mention in your original question: Do you have a heatsink installed?  Is there sufficient airflow?

In general, are you sure you want to use this board with a mate environment?  Even if you get to work around the heat issues.  RAM and CPU are likely to cause this to be a bit of an underwhelming experience.
