I just wanted to say, I have been having an absolute nightmare of a time getting the temps on my Acer Predator under control and this may be the single greatest video I have ever seen to date. My CPU temps went from consistently hitting 90 C + on medium-high settings in Farcry 5 to now hitting a high of 60 C ( where my Cpu used to Idle) on Ultra settings hard locked to 72fps. I can't thank you enough for this video.
@@kristianinho79 I haven't. There were a few graphics artifacts at first because I lowered the voltage too much, but after you dial it in its great. Mine settled in at around -50 mV and -30mV for the integrated. Running AC Valhalla on high/ultra settings locked to 72fps with no crashes.
I have a somewhat powerful ROG laptop. Every 10mins my frames drop to practically zero for 15 seconds. This bit solved all my problems. Excellent and easy tutorial. Thank you!
It was locked regardless on my 12700h laptop but the task scheduler guide was ridiculously helpful for a program I've had to manually start up on nearly every boot on my desktop so you've earned a like from me.
Great! Thanks for this. My temps and voltage can't get as low as yours but it's managed to get them low enough to avoid my second fan kicking in when I'm on low usage which is a godsend.
@@ScottyDGaming I'm so upset man I thought this would actually fix my 5i that I just got a few weeks ago, up until the last week everything was running absolutely stellar now I'm plagued with the most frustrating issue...

I swear it may have something to do with the latest BIOS update as well but it all blends in when I look back at everything. It confuses me because the amount of drops also seem to correlate w the different wall plugs I use. I went to a different Airbnb and had no issues the whole night. Very weird.
The resting temperature of my Tuf f15 2021 with i7 11800h was about 65 with normal tasks pushing it to 90-95, I was very worried but apparently that's how it normally is. But still, the amount of throttling meant boost clock never really sustained above 2800 something mhz. I have successfully applied -70, -50, -30 (core, cache, graphics) mV using this tutorial, now my benchmarks scores increased almost 15-20%, my idle temp is 10-15 degrees lower.

I am one of the MSI users.. I just thought I was doomed, BUT! YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER! - however! I thermal throttled in all test, no matter what kind of undervoltage I did.. I went from being locked at 3200 mhz on all cores, to 3800 by undervolting 50/50/30 .. I repasted with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, and went from throttling at 95 degrees, to by still undervolting 50/50/30, to be at approx 78 degrees (max 82 degrees) in the 960M test at hold your breath 4200 mhz! no more throttle.. Repasting did the job.. Thank you.. Your video inspired me to actually doing something about my problem.. My MSI GP66 11UG with 11800H is now running better than ever! :)
Played around a bit more.. Im able to do 50/50/30 undervolt, powerlimit to PL1 70, PL2 85, limit time 28.. I hit idle temp at 40 degrees with fans doing 0 RPM.. I am yet to test my max temps while doing a heavy gaming session.. But having a laptop this powerful being able to idle with no fans spinning is impressive to be honest..
Repasted once more (and cleaned the fans throughgly and removed all dust and hair) and went into downvolting in bios instead, and let the power limit be to default... So I dont have to worry about throttlestop running.. It was good to find the limits before though.. update is under heavy gaming I reach max temps on my GPU RTX3070 laptop at 75 degrees, and CPU peaks at 84 degrees and that is without turbo boost! - with turbo boost it is approx 55 on GPU and 68 on CPU under heavy load :).. laptop is 1½ years old, and couldn't be more happy :)
Turn On/Off doesnt do anything btw. Its literally listed in the official guide. Also, I had mine off ever since installing it and runs just fine. The only reason to change it is for aesthetic pleasure, if you like green icon or red icon )))
Heads up: you can undervolt as much as you like depending on what your system can handle, it WILL NOT damage your system. I appreciate the video but the word "safe" is misleading. Extra voltage, outside of the chips design is what reduces lifespan. If it goes too high then you can have sudden chip death. You can blue screen a million times and the chip will be fine, it'll just be unstable so undervolt as much as you can with your system being stable and enjoy :)
Best settings for 11800h Its help alot ! 75 is max on CPU right now and while streaming a long time its sometimes hits 80 but drop down fast to 75 max again
I'm so happy I found this video! I've got a question though. Does it matter if I'm going to adjust it on a laptop setup, with rtx 3060 laptop version? Should I just use the settings from this video, or should I look them up for specifically my laptop? Thanks in advance!
@@ScottyDGaming thanks so much! I'll try this probably later today, I hope this will solve the problems with overheating. You said that the worst that can happen is a bluescreen haha, so I'll just stick to this tutorial just like you said, without saving at first.
gosh, my laptop won't let me undervolt the cpu, I've tried turning off memory integrity through windows security and disabling VTD through bios, nothing helps, FIVR control is still locked. I've even tried setting processor power management to 98 and then to 90% to just lower cpu temps, that didn't help either.
Holy Shieet! It's Working. Thank you so much. Your instructions is superb. My brain monkey can understand. My Legion 5 Pro, before 98C - 91Watt. After undervolt 75C - 74Watt. My voltage cannot low more than -60.5mv.
my pc temps skyrocket once i open a game immediately, and then starts underclocking the cpu so the game is unplayable... thats why i hate hp man no airflow cooling at all its just bad for even regular gaming...idk if replacing thermal paste would help tho
It does work with all cpu's. The cpu catch undervolting depence in big margine of your ram speed and ram mode. I Can go only with -40 on catch and -70, but i setted gear mode 1, and 1N also tightended the CL and other timings. Mine is much hotter can sustain only about 3.8ghz in these test but it is doing this task 960M quicker regard the lower speed, scoring 66s.
Hi, I cant change the FIVR like you do. Mine is unchangeable. And when I created in task scheduler, there's an error saying "one or more of the specified arguments are not valid".
Everytime I click download it says its a download.html and when i click on that it brings me back to the download page but nothing loads. What do I do to fix this?
I have an i7 11800h, I followed the tutorial up until opening FIVR. I can't check 'CPU Core' or 'Unlock Adjustable Voltage' so I can't change any of the voltage sliders. How do I fix this?
The Turn On button only controls 3 things. Clock Modulation, Chipset Clock Modulation and Set Multiplier. On many recent CPUs, you do not need to use any of these ThrottleStop features. So, for undervolting the Turn On button is absolute obsolete.
This guide is the single most descirptive and simple to use steps i have come across....however i am using an msi gp66 leopard, and using these settings i blue screen in the benchmarking, i also seem to still be running at about 85-95 degrees ( on some cores ), wondering if any one has any thoughts on this or recomendations ( i have re pasted etc )
I'd love to see a Gigabye G6 KF i7 13620H downvolt video with BIOS unlock, it's a low to mid price range laptop with good components, the video would be super useful for many people i think. Also I own one and I need help 😭
Could you help me, I can't select any option from the FIVR CONTROL panel, before watching your video I had seen where I modified those options but I didn't understand the explanation, but I don't know what to do now I get all the options disabled, I have the same processor and the temperatures are very high when I'm playing, the only option that lowers the temperature is disable the turbo, but by doing that the performance drops considerably
Thanks i got a i7 14700k and it runs like an oven needed to undervolt it tried to with intel XTU but i couldn't find undervolt protection in my bios to allow me to change the settings so had to result to this.
testa -100.6 no cpu core e -40 no cpu cache e na opcao FIVR vai em 8 cores active la no final e muda de 42 para 41 vai ficar ao inves de 4.2ghz 4.1ghz a diferenca e que em 4.2ghz o meu (g15 5511) chega a 90 graus e consome 76.3W e com 4.1 chega a 83 graus e consome 70.8w sao -5.5w e -7graus.... fica a fica. estou com ele assim desde 20 de janeiro de 2022 e nunca mais deu tela azul em nenhum jogo.
@@agustingiraldi3250 Cara muitíssimo obrigado, fiz exatamente como você disse e deu super certo. O PC ta até menos barulhento. Edit: Mano você é foda, eu só jogo um jogo... quando dava o boost da intel a tmeperatura ia pra 100 graus man, agora fica entre 80~82 e NO MÁXIMO 87 quando ta naquela janela do boost. Ficou sensacional A unica coisa que eu tive que alterar foi o cpu core pra -90,8 pois acima disso estava dando tela azul. Muito obrigado mesmo.

Hi, i've downloaded really many versions of this programme but i don't have a speed shift option, i have the same processor and what am i supposed to do?
I can not change anything in the FIVR settings :S I did everything just like you, but I can not click on "Unlock adjustable voltage" , neither on "Cpu Core" SOLVED: I unlocked CPU overclock in the hidden BIOS of my MSI laptop.
Excuse me, I have an Asus I5 11300H, and I'm trying Throttlestop 9.4.6 , but I'm not allowed to modify voltage settings. I can't select "Unlock Adjustable Voltage", it appears in grey. Any help? Thnks a lot.
Hi, I can't seem to lower the temperature no matter what I do on Throttlestop. The temperature always goes up to around 85-96 degrees. Am I doing something wrong or is my laptop having problems with the thermal paste?
I have the same! XTU instantly gave me better results. ThrottleStop however, seems to not be enabled. I tried uninstalling all of XTU even tho it runs in the background as proces 😭😭 Idk what to do, and am exhausted from looking for tutorials! I changed to ThrottleStop bc it had the windows defender boost and the icons in tray are really nice! But I need a way to enable it. I looked all over BIOS through guides bc I did in fact reset windows (not fully tho). Someone said I should disable CFG Lock in power & performance for CPU to enable undervolt. Thoughts?
I tried to use throttlespot , i can enter in menu FIVR but there i can found "locked " the menu in undervolt, i have a acer nitro 5 with 3060. what can i do for unlock? sorry my english not good and i cant understand all consuel in video
Hello! Thanks for the great video! I do have question, Im running i7 10700h and rtx 3060 max q. my power limit to bluescreen is at -88mv and tried -87 going down to -70mv it always throttle at around 40sec of TS bench and still running 85 degree to 95 degree. what should i do my laptop is MSI gf65 thin. Also is 8gb ram affects throttling? if i change to 16gb ram will this affect the throttling and heat (lowering down) thank you!
Hi Scotty! Thank you for the video. I have a 11800H as well and I followed your steps, but my FID doesn't get past 28 when running the TS Bench. Any ideas?
yo, the FIVR cpu voltage part is locked for me. i cant change the CPU Core, CPU Cache system or anything in that entire column. I have an 11800H, my laptop is an Asus Predator Triton 500 SE. do you know what I can do to fix it?
-70mv pretty stable for my cpu, i run some test, cinebench r15 and r20, no bluescreen either, if i try -71mv it bluescreen, and all my game runs fine at -70mv , maybe i'll change it to -65mv just in case, thanks again
is there a difference between using throttlestop and intel xtu? Also does it help with battery life? I have legion 5 pro, do I use the same voltage as you?
But what if the disclaimer always pops up? And after every laptop restarting my turbo ratio limits reset, + closing the window of throttlestop it just shuts down and I have to start It with the disclaimer again )
Every time I take a test, the temperature of the processor in max is 95 degrees and does not drop, if I increase the voltage, it gives a blue screen error.
When set the Intel GPU voltage the system crash... And even going on -70.3v on both CPU core and cache, my cpu still gets over 80W on max and still gets over 92ºC
This didn't work for my MSI GP66 with my 11800h.. I did exactly as you did. Just a few seconds into the benchmark, it went into blue screen. :( What am I doing wrong?
@@ScottyDGaming Thank you for your quick response.. I think something else is wrong with my laptop so I am going to get it replaced since I just got it. According to HWinfo, my laptops CPU temperature spikes to thermal throttle levels during start-up. On regular load the cpu temps are around 56 to 60 degrees celsius and I have to limit my FPS to 60 in games such as FFXIV to avoid the laptop thermal throtteling. GPU levels seem fine.. around 50 to 60 degrees during gaming.. so i don't know what's happening.
@Alibi Yes i have found a solution. I repasted my laptop with better cooling paste. On top of that i used Throttlestop and didn't undervolt. Instead I used the following options: Speed Shift - EPP, BD PROCHOT, Speedstep and C1E. This kept my temps below 80 degrees. Oh and do not forget a proper cooling plate.
After every laptop reboot my cpu cache offset voltage settings always reset, just tried to put the same in bios, I found in overclooking advanced performance processor some parameters called ring and uncore which are fixed under the name of cpu cache put values -40 mv, saved and all, my laptop does not start, it like switches on for a second and then immediately switches off and so for several minutes, what is the most interesting is that I could not switch it off with the power button. Then I had to open the case and reset bios settings turning off cmos battery -__-
So i'm on an ASUS TUF dash F15 and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to unlock the bios i've looked for an hour and can't find anything to be able to change the Voltage also the instead of the "FIVR Control" it says "Not Available"
I'm getting BSOD even without undervolting my cpu... I'm on a dell g15 5511. I tried to run the ts bench without undervolting and the cpu went down to 1.5 ghz and then a few seconds later got a bsod
I have the same processor 11800h and followed all the instructions in the video guide, but my temps still reach 90-99 °C. Really don't understand how you can realize those 70 °C values. My System is an Alienware M15 R6 with Intels 11800h and RTX3070 graphics card. Any solutions or thoughts from your side?
@@ScottyDGaming 1) surface is not lifted 2) more cold than warm country :) 3) I don't think that this model has bad thermals 4) fans do not run at full speed - mofe is called balanced. Do you run them at full speed in your testing shown in the video?
@@ScottyDGaming Hi Scotty, my package power is higher than 70 Watts. Maybe this is the reason...?Same with temps (now I am using a cooling pad) still reaches 90 to 100 degrees. Right now I am limiting the turbo clock to 3600 MHz to get temps around 73-79 °C.
Which laptop do you have? I have the MSI gp76 leopard and it runs hot...I had to undervolt and reduce the TPL on each core to 33. It definitely affected framerates negatively but it's running much cooler... And my undervolt is -80mv.
I use speedshift and custom value for PL1 without clicking on the Turn On button ever, so I dont think it wont work without turning it on. its probably required for certain settings but not for all

I hit idle temp at 40 degrees with fans doing 0 RPM..
I am yet to test my max temps while doing a heavy gaming session.. But having a laptop this powerful being able to idle with no fans spinning is impressive to be honest..
Repasted once more (and cleaned the fans throughgly and removed all dust and hair) and went into downvolting in bios instead, and let the power limit be to default... So I dont have to worry about throttlestop running.. It was good to find the limits before though..
update is under heavy gaming I reach max temps on my GPU RTX3070 laptop at 75 degrees, and CPU peaks at 84 degrees and that is without turbo boost! - with turbo boost it is approx 55 on GPU and 68 on CPU under heavy load :)..
laptop is 1½ years old, and couldn't be more happy :)
@@vixN bro I followed the same as this video but it came blue screen what to do now?
Fantastic temperatures indeed, I've seen 76°C as the maximum which is a huge drop for me! Thanks!

Very straightforward and also have a very clear and understandable explanation thankyou
Turn On/Off doesnt do anything btw. Its literally listed in the official guide. Also, I had mine off ever since installing it and runs just fine. The only reason to change it is for aesthetic pleasure, if you like green icon or red icon )))
Heads up: you can undervolt as much as you like depending on what your system can handle, it WILL NOT damage your system. I appreciate the video but the word "safe" is misleading. Extra voltage, outside of the chips design is what reduces lifespan. If it goes too high then you can have sudden chip death. You can blue screen a million times and the chip will be fine, it'll just be unstable so undervolt as much as you can with your system being stable and enjoy :)
Best settings for 11800h Its help alot ! 75 is max on CPU right now and while streaming a long time its sometimes hits 80 but drop down fast to 75 max again
I'm so happy I found this video!
I've got a question though. Does it matter if I'm going to adjust it on a laptop setup, with rtx 3060 laptop version? Should I just use the settings from this video, or should I look them up for specifically my laptop?
Thanks in advance!
You will get more specific settings if you look for your laptop but these settings will still work for you.
@@ScottyDGaming thanks so much! I'll try this probably later today, I hope this will solve the problems with overheating. You said that the worst that can happen is a bluescreen haha, so I'll just stick to this tutorial just like you said, without saving at first.
gosh, my laptop won't let me undervolt the cpu, I've tried turning off memory integrity through windows security and disabling VTD through bios, nothing helps, FIVR control is still locked.
I've even tried setting processor power management to 98 and then to 90% to just lower cpu temps, that didn't help either.
Holy Shieet! It's Working. Thank you so much.
Your instructions is superb. My brain monkey can understand.
My Legion 5 Pro, before 98C - 91Watt. After undervolt 75C - 74Watt.
My voltage cannot low more than -60.5mv.
this is the best tutorial for undervolting ive seen
Cheers mate!
my pc temps skyrocket once i open a game immediately, and then starts underclocking the cpu so the game is unplayable... thats why i hate hp man no airflow cooling at all its just bad for even regular gaming...idk if replacing thermal paste would help tho
Keep cache just like that and set -125mv on core v. Will work like a champ. Gen 10/11 have cache v limitations
Nice man. Works perfect for me. -50 on cache and -135 on core. Very good temps now! Reggards
@@ra3005 Is it stable?
@@kamehameha38 no. Set -105 and keep cache 0. Running for a year now!
@@ra3005 So cache offset does nothing to the temps?
@@kamehameha38 does. But even a small undevolt make mine unstable!
Thanks a lot my friend. Now I’m going to look to see if you’ve got any overclocking stuff… :)
Thanks mate, its works 😊
It does work with all cpu's. The cpu catch undervolting depence in big margine of your ram speed and ram mode. I Can go only with -40 on catch and -70, but i setted gear mode 1, and 1N also tightended the CL and other timings. Mine is much hotter can sustain only about 3.8ghz in these test but it is doing this task 960M quicker regard the lower speed, scoring 66s.
such helpful video, thanks bro
Hi, I cant change the FIVR like you do. Mine is unchangeable. And when I created in task scheduler, there's an error saying "one or more of the specified arguments are not valid".
Everytime I click download it says its a download.html and when i click on that it brings me back to the download page but nothing loads. What do I do to fix this?
I have an i7 11800h, I followed the tutorial up until opening FIVR. I can't check 'CPU Core' or 'Unlock Adjustable Voltage' so I can't change any of the voltage sliders. How do I fix this?
go into bios and check if overclock is enabled
what brand of laptop you run ? I see nice temps on CPU. Nice guide by the way, can you add 1 with max overclocking setings ?
great video, I'm going to try this on my Nitro 5 this weekend.
Thank you very much sir 😃
Thank you very much, Scotty!
So I have a acer predator Helios 300. All the settings are locked on my 11th Gen cpu….
got the same issue with you. try dowloading throttlestop version 9.2
Hey, when i try to undervolt, all my options for CPU core votage are grayed out and I can't interact with them. Any help would be amazing
did that to my new razer blade 17, i9 11900H, thanks mate
when i go to FIVR it says the voltage thing is locked is there a way to unlock it
The Turn On button only controls 3 things. Clock Modulation, Chipset Clock Modulation and Set Multiplier. On many recent CPUs, you do not need to use any of these ThrottleStop features. So, for undervolting the Turn On button is absolute obsolete.
Thanks for the help!
Thnx man

11850h same settings are ok 🎉
This guide is the single most descirptive and simple to use steps i have come across....however i am using an msi gp66 leopard, and using these settings i blue screen in the benchmarking, i also seem to still be running at about 85-95 degrees ( on some cores ), wondering if any one has any thoughts on this or recomendations ( i have re pasted etc )
I'd love to see a Gigabye G6 KF i7 13620H downvolt video with BIOS unlock, it's a low to mid price range laptop with good components, the video would be super useful for many people i think. Also I own one and I need help 😭
What is the bios version I'm using same model but my options are disabled
did you manage to edit it?, the same thing happens to me, the options are disabled
Well, thanks for the video. Too bad I can't get it to work on my 7i, but great job. Subscribed!
What a great video
Welcome bro
Could you help me, I can't select any option from the FIVR CONTROL panel, before watching your video I had seen where I modified those options but I didn't understand the explanation, but I don't know what to do now I get all the options disabled, I have the same processor and the temperatures are very high when I'm playing, the only option that lowers the temperature is disable the turbo, but by doing that the performance drops considerably
Thanks alot mate
Thanks i got a i7 14700k and it runs like an oven needed to undervolt it tried to with intel XTU but i couldn't find undervolt protection in my bios to allow me to change the settings so had to result to this.
Got blackscreen at 70.3mV (Dell G15 5511).
60.5mV was the best I could achieve.
Still very nice.
sup dude, mind if i ask how you undervolted, I have the same exact laptop but it says its locked, what do i have to do?
testa -100.6 no cpu core e -40 no cpu cache e na opcao FIVR vai em 8 cores active la no final e muda de 42 para 41 vai ficar ao inves de 4.2ghz 4.1ghz a diferenca e que em 4.2ghz o meu (g15 5511) chega a 90 graus e consome 76.3W e com 4.1 chega a 83 graus e consome 70.8w sao -5.5w e -7graus.... fica a fica. estou com ele assim desde 20 de janeiro de 2022 e nunca mais deu tela azul em nenhum jogo.
@@agustingiraldi3250 Cara muitíssimo obrigado, fiz exatamente como você disse e deu super certo. O PC ta até menos barulhento.
Edit: Mano você é foda, eu só jogo um jogo... quando dava o boost da intel a tmeperatura ia pra 100 graus man, agora fica entre 80~82 e NO MÁXIMO 87 quando ta naquela janela do boost. Ficou sensacional
A unica coisa que eu tive que alterar foi o cpu core pra -90,8 pois acima disso estava dando tela azul.
Muito obrigado mesmo.

Hi, i've downloaded really many versions of this programme but i don't have a speed shift option, i have the same processor and what am i supposed to do?
bro you will do it from bios.
You have to enable oc mode in bios, after that you turn speefshift on, it is somehwere in oc mode
I can not change anything in the FIVR settings :S I did everything just like you, but I can not click on "Unlock adjustable voltage" , neither on "Cpu Core"
SOLVED: I unlocked CPU overclock in the hidden BIOS of my MSI laptop.
Excuse me, I have an Asus I5 11300H, and I'm trying Throttlestop 9.4.6 , but I'm not allowed to modify voltage settings. I can't select "Unlock Adjustable Voltage", it appears in grey. Any help?
Thnks a lot.
@@ScottyDGaming Thanks I'll do so.
Hi, I can't seem to lower the temperature no matter what I do on Throttlestop. The temperature always goes up to around 85-96 degrees. Am I doing something wrong or is my laptop having problems with the thermal paste?
@@ScottyDGaming Thanks for the speedy reply. I currently have a 2021 Legion 7 Laptop, what can you tell me about their thermals overall?
I have the same! XTU instantly gave me better results. ThrottleStop however, seems to not be enabled. I tried uninstalling all of XTU even tho it runs in the background as proces 😭😭
Idk what to do, and am exhausted from looking for tutorials!
I changed to ThrottleStop bc it had the windows defender boost and the icons in tray are really nice!
But I need a way to enable it. I looked all over BIOS through guides bc I did in fact reset windows (not fully tho).
Someone said I should disable CFG Lock in power & performance for CPU to enable undervolt.
Thoughts?
do u have W11??
I tried to use throttlespot , i can enter in menu FIVR but there i can found "locked " the menu in undervolt, i have a acer nitro 5 with 3060. what can i do for unlock? sorry my english not good and i cant understand all consuel in video
I have the same problem
did you manage to edit it?, the same thing happens to me, the options are disabled
Hello! Thanks for the great video! I do have question, Im running i7 10700h and rtx 3060 max q. my power limit to bluescreen is at -88mv and tried -87 going down to -70mv it always throttle at around 40sec of TS bench and still running 85 degree to 95 degree. what should i do my laptop is MSI gf65 thin. Also is 8gb ram affects throttling? if i change to 16gb ram will this affect the throttling and heat (lowering down) thank you!
its so annoying that the new windows updates to remove the plundervolt exploit disables undervolting.

Such a good guide holy sh*t, only thing is my laptop won't let me change anything in fivr part
Hi Scotty! Thank you for the video. I have a 11800H as well and I followed your steps, but my FID doesn't get past 28 when running the TS Bench. Any ideas?
Do you have your pc set to performance mode? Sometimes the modes built into your system limit the processor speed.
I can’t change cpu core voltage I don’t have the option to unlock it
did you manage to edit it?, the same thing happens to me, the options are disabled
I did everything as in the video, the temperatures remained the same. And the Power remained the same - 79W. Don't know what could be wrong?
yo, the FIVR cpu voltage part is locked for me. i cant change the CPU Core, CPU Cache system or anything in that entire column. I have an 11800H, my laptop is an Asus Predator Triton 500 SE. do you know what I can do to fix it?

I have an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-7447 with an Intel i7 11800H processor. The FIVR control is locked. How can I change that?
Did the same and nothing hapened to me. it was 95C and 3.3 in test before and its stay like this again 95-94C and 3.3ghz. I dont know what to do :(
Whats your system? 70c is pretty good under 70w load for a laptop with 11800H.
tks you
damn 70 is my limit, btw thanks for the tutorial
-70mv pretty stable for my cpu, i run some test, cinebench r15 and r20, no bluescreen either, if i try -71mv it bluescreen, and all my game runs fine at -70mv , maybe i'll change it to -65mv just in case, thanks again

Hey, i have a i7 11800 dell g15, but throllestop wont let me change any values for the cpu. Is there any help i can get?
My ThrottleStop doesn't have a FIVR option, do I need to enable something in the BIOS?
Unfortunately, after clicking FIVR popup box have no option for FIVR control and even Unlock Adjustable voltage is blocked
is there a difference between using throttlestop and intel xtu?
Also does it help with battery life?
I have legion 5 pro, do I use the same voltage as you?
@@ScottyDGaming I have the same cpu but its legion 5 pro, do i use the same voltage as you?
But what if the disclaimer always pops up? And after every laptop restarting my turbo ratio limits reset, + closing the window of throttlestop it just shuts down and I have to start It with the disclaimer again )
Hi Scotty, in the FIVR section, my FIVR says 'Locked', but on the main screen nothing is greyed out. Any tips?
Every time I take a test, the temperature of the processor in max is 95 degrees and does not drop, if I increase the voltage, it gives a blue screen error.
Thank you!
When set the Intel GPU voltage the system crash... And even going on -70.3v on both CPU core and cache, my cpu still gets over 80W on max and still gets over 92ºC
This didn't work for my MSI GP66 with my 11800h.. I did exactly as you did. Just a few seconds into the benchmark, it went into blue screen. :( What am I doing wrong?
@@ScottyDGaming Thank you for your quick response.. I think something else is wrong with my laptop so I am going to get it replaced since I just got it. According to HWinfo, my laptops CPU temperature spikes to thermal throttle levels during start-up. On regular load the cpu temps are around 56 to 60 degrees celsius and I have to limit my FPS to 60 in games such as FFXIV to avoid the laptop thermal throtteling. GPU levels seem fine.. around 50 to 60 degrees during gaming.. so i don't know what's happening.
@Alibi Yes i have found a solution. I repasted my laptop with better cooling paste. On top of that i used Throttlestop and didn't undervolt. Instead I used the following options: Speed Shift - EPP, BD PROCHOT, Speedstep and C1E. This kept my temps below 80 degrees. Oh and do not forget a proper cooling plate.
After every laptop reboot my cpu cache offset voltage settings always reset, just tried to put the same in bios, I found in overclooking advanced performance processor some parameters called ring and uncore which are fixed under the name of cpu cache put values -40 mv, saved and all, my laptop does not start, it like switches on for a second and then immediately switches off and so for several minutes, what is the most interesting is that I could not switch it off with the power button. Then I had to open the case and reset bios settings turning off cmos battery -__-
So i'm on an ASUS TUF dash F15 and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to unlock the bios i've looked for an hour and can't find anything to be able to change the Voltage also the instead of the "FIVR Control" it says "Not Available"
i did all this on my 11800h but my power pgk sits at 57watts . and the cpu underclocks itself to 2,9 ghz all cores , not stable at 4.2 any hints ?
I'm getting BSOD even without undervolting my cpu... I'm on a dell g15 5511. I tried to run the ts bench without undervolting and the cpu went down to 1.5 ghz and then a few seconds later got a bsod
I have the same processor 11800h and followed all the instructions in the video guide, but my temps still reach 90-99 °C. Really don't understand how you can realize those 70 °C values. My System is an Alienware M15 R6 with Intels 11800h and RTX3070 graphics card. Any solutions or thoughts from your side?
@@ScottyDGaming 1) surface is not lifted
2) more cold than warm country :)
3) I don't think that this model has bad thermals
4) fans do not run at full speed - mofe is called balanced. Do you run them at full speed in your testing shown in the video?
@@ScottyDGaming Hi Scotty, my package power is higher than 70 Watts. Maybe this is the reason...?Same with temps (now I am using a cooling pad) still reaches 90 to 100 degrees. Right now I am limiting the turbo clock to 3600 MHz to get temps around 73-79 °C.
Hello, in my case it does not let me modify the values that appear in the video. appear blocked. help me. Please.
Which laptop do you have? I have the MSI gp76 leopard and it runs hot...I had to undervolt and reduce the TPL on each core to 33. It definitely affected framerates negatively but it's running much cooler... And my undervolt is -80mv.
I have similiar laptop its lenovo legion 5 pro and its i7 11800H and RTX 3060 , hope this work smoothly
I use speedshift and custom value for PL1 without clicking on the Turn On button ever, so I dont think it wont work without turning it on. its probably required for certain settings but not for all
Did all your instructions. WORKED LIKE A CHARM! Although i had to set mine at 55.3mV cause it kept crashing
