My system information:HP Omen 17-w041ndi7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHzGeForce GTX 965M 4GB16GB DDR4512GB SSD M.2 nvmeBIOS-version/date Insyde F.53, 12-12-2019Wattage: 120 WattThe problem:When i'm playing games i hit temperatures of 90 Celsius on my CPU. In the screenshot below you can see the game "Kingdoms and Castles" running at 90 Celsius. I am not comfortable running these temperatures for my laptop. In the other screenshots below you can see my ThrottleStop settings. I copied these settings from another forum but with no result in decreased temperature. ( -my-i7-6700-hq-cpu-with-throttlestop.243385/)The question:Can someone help me if i am using the right settings in ThrottleStop to lower my laptop temperature? I am fairly new to undervolting and don't want to mess too much with the settings in case my laptop crashes.
Undervolting is not possible if you have newer BIOS and OS versions because of the Plundervolt exploit fix which affects 6th to 10th gen Intel CPUs. Whatever voltage related thing you do in throttlestop simply wouldnt apply. I've also realized the power settings from throttlestop and Intel XTU don't work either on my laptop with an 8750H.
hey I have an acer predator helios 300 laptop with Intel i7 9750h and the CPU comes undervolted to -125 offset voltage but for some reason idk the offset set to 0 from factory setting. Anyone knows how to set it to -125 back? I used throttlestop but everytime I restart my PC the setting of throttle stop reset to 0 offset. Anyone has any solution?
It still does not have everything and is pretty basic overall when compared to windows throttlestop. A slow progress, but still is going to be helpful for improving the support gradually. (as of may 2019 - we are not there yet!)
* The driver you mentioned that got updated ( Intel SoftwareComponent 1.63.1155.1) -if you take a look at microsoft update catalog- is actually the Intel(R) ICLS Client update which addresses security updates and improves system stability. Although it HAS been known to cause all sorts of issues, I don't see how it could possibly force power limits on your CPU, the ones that cause the PL1 and PL2 boxes in throttlestop...
