This is THE guide to help you understand what is needed to undervolt your compatible GPU inside of your laptop. This will help reduce heat and is a great addition to CPU undervolting for near ultimate thermal management!
So does this replace throttlestop for undervolting? I have the Ideapad 720s you reviewed a year and half ago and throttlestop expired on me a while back so I ignored undervolting. I haven't traveled much for work this year so haven't needed to game on it much. This looks like a lot cleaner solution.
Usually takes about five minutes but yeah I agree there is a way by hacking into the registry but I don’t care for showing that kind of stuff on the channel
Agreed. But you can just apply a -100mhz underclock and then bring up the first dot to your desired value then apply again. You will have way less dots to adjust after if any.
@@BobOfAllTrades BTW Forgot to update you guys, You can do the following Press on the node you want as a reference for the straight line then press shift and Highlight all the nodes with LMB then press shift + (2xEnter) and it will line them perfectly straight.
I've been undervolting for years, but this is the first time I actually understand how and why it works. This was just a grade A video. Bob, you're a great resource for the community!
You are a true homie man! Warzone has been kicking my laptop gpu's ass (constant 91 degrees and blue screens galore) but after undervolting the max temp is 80 on both CPU and GPU. Thanks again man!
Thank you for making this video! I currently am running a MSI GE75 Raider with a 10th gen Intel I7 with a RTX 2080 super and my GPU was clocking at 2000MHz in my curve graph I straight lined it to 1350 I reduced my CPU temps from 95 degrees while gaming to 50-60 degrees while gaming max settings this greatly helped me because my CPU is locked and can’t be undervolted! Big thumbs up!
If you shift then click(click then shift moves the whole curve) on the chart it lets you highlight a range, then if you hit shift+enter after selecting it, you can delete and type in a voltage and it sets the entire range to that voltage, a bit easier than flattening the curve imo.
Temperatures went from 86 to 79-81 you're a real life saver. Running a 1660ti nvidia card. I was hesitant at first but after getting the courage to try undervolting there is a huge improvement not only in temperatures but in steady fps.
If you somehow still see this or get a notification, may i ask what frequency did you set it to, i did the same as in the video about 1290 and i still get around 85-85 temp.

which version of the hp omen, friend? i have a dc0xxx and im still getting high temps, did that to a 1070 max q and undervolted the cpu using intel xtu and still getting high temps. any other tips? (already repasted it)
Thank you so freakin' much man. I'm running a Lenovo Y540, GTX 1660 Ti, intel i5 9300h and i've been clambering all over the interwebs for a solution to my thermal throttling problem Fixing the CPU undervolt was a breeze but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to undervolt the GPU (all those numbers are daunting) so that Ctrl+L lock really dialed down that heat issue. I was surprised at the minimal frame rate loss when loading up MHW!! You're a lifesaver, thank you
Thank you so much for your help Bob. My Y540 was running hot at 96 °C CPU and 85 °C GPU. Following both your i7 undervolting guide and this one (got a 1660 Ti) actually did the trick! Now my machine runs at 74 °C CPU and 66 °C GPU! Subscribed!
@@zackralph793 I mainly play DMC5 and RE2R, I get 130 fps and 100 fps respectively. You kinda have to find your card's sweet spot, I found mine at 1785 MHz, 800 mV. I did this by trial and error.
ive been dealing with thermal issues since i bought my Sager 8th gen i7 8750 with a gtx 1060 6g. Thank you for explaining msi after burner! ive figured out how to undervolt the hot house 8750 but never the GPU. im gaming at 70c at all times and my fps have stayed right where i want them. Great Video, thanks again!
Strangely, I followed Bob of All Trades' mentioned steps for my TUF A17 with the 1660Ti, and it still boosts to 1950 MHz, with temperatures around 80 to 83 deg C (in GTA 4, maximum 80 deg C). EDIT: I changed the "Unlock Voltage Control" setting (keeping it enabled) to "Reference Design", and enabled "Unlock voltage monitoring". This seems to have enabled undervolting for me, and my GPU temps in GTA 4 didn't cross 74 deg C during a short 25 minute playthrough. The max frequency is 1320 MHz. Still, thank you very much for this video, Bob!
Thanks a lot for this very informative video. I have a MSI GP65 Leopard with i7 10750H processor and Rtx 2070 GPU. This machine used to get hella hot with processor temperatures upwards of 90°C on heavy loads and the resulting fan noise was killing me. I used Throttlestop to reduce the turbo boost at 3.6 GHz (Undervolting did not show any appreciable temperature difference); this contained the processor temperature upto an acceptable 85°C on heavy loads. But the fan noise still remained. So I followed your steps and fixed the frequency of the GPU at 1420 MHz (The upper limit is 1440 MHz for the Rtx 2070 mobile). Now the GPU temperatures do not exceed 76°C and the processor temperatures also do not exceed 78°C even after hours of heavy gaming. This has resulted in a marked decrease in fan noise on the laptop, they run quite silent now. I think now I can also afford to increase the turbo boost a bit, in case I need more processing power. 👍👍
Hi, I have core i5 10th and I want to undervolt it, can you help me with throttle stop main settings to undervolt cpu, please 😢 it goes to 100° on gaming with turbo boost 3ghz
Hey bob , you can get a static curve in two seconds just click the last dot and then press and hold shift that way you can drag the whole curve down to 1290mhz then press the first dot and put it in 1290 too and press apply will get the jon done thanks for the tutorial
You can actually make your life a lot easier by just doing the following: 1. Open graph 2. Select your base node that you want to undervolt the following nodes to 3. Shift+LMB and then drag over to select all the nodes past the one you just selected 4. Shift+Enter 5. Input value of desired frequency (if you followed step 2, just pressing Enter will push all the nodes to the selected node's frequency
Thank you so much for this! I wish I found this sooner, I was pushing the limit of my laptop and ended up repasting it. Now there's a new paste followed your guide and from 92 degrees I made it down to 66 degrees but clocking my 1070 to 1442 MHz only I'm trying to go higher but not sure what to adjust I'll keep trying. Appreciate all your videos man!
This did it! Before I was reaching 99C on cpu. This also helped me cool my cpu now I'm reaching only 84C on my CPU and 64C on my GPU when playing Dota 2. Haven't tested yet on COD MW. Btw, when fine tweaking the sweet spot, do I raise the frequency first or the voltage? I don't know how high I can go on the 700 volts as the video tackled the fine tuning a bit less
@@pavlespasic i've had my laptop for a week. Been testing it with CoD warzone. I have a rtx 2070MX-Q and an i7 9750H. The laptop is a HP omen 15. Right of the bad. The performance is sick, only it heats up. Even when using a cooling pad it gets to 99°C. What i basically did was lower the frequency to 3.6GHz and undervolted till 125mV. This lowerd my temps to an average of 75°C. Sometimes peaking at 81/82. Now because of exams i do not really have a lot of time to test it more so I left it at that point. Performance wasn't impacted in the game. I can run warzone stable at 140 fps (everything on low 1080p). Maybe i've lost 2 frames or something but that doesn't outweigh the temp drop.
This is a cery good guide, i followed the instructions, without understanding at all, but it worked, I actually increased my FPS and game performance. For reference, I reduced to -45.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! All I did was the yellow line setting and I went from high 80's GPU temp to averaging 68c with a high of 71c while playing Fortnite. So thankful 🙏. My cpu was already ok after undervolting with throttlestop. Happy camper now.
Maaaaan! I've been waiting for this!!! Thanks man! Your Throttlestop guide pulled more juice from my Asus ROG GL703! Lets see how it goes with the GPU (GTX1060)!!! Again, Thanks a lot!! Cheers from Mexico! Liked and subbed :)
YOU"RE MY HERO! It freaking works! I already undervolted my CPU before but never tried the GPU. Now, my laptop runs Assassins creed odyssey at 63-65C, which is an incredible figure. It also cooled my CPU for some reason, maybe it made my chassis cooler because it lessens internal heat circulation. Thank you for this guide!
This was amazing. I've been having so much trouble with a Dell G7 laptop with an RTX 2070 on it which ran at about 1900 MHz clock speed and above 80+ C for about 15 min of gaming and then throttles down to 300MHz for what seems like forever... Terrible frame rates at that frequency (obviously). Dell support has been completely useless. BIOS updates did nothing. This was it. That magical curve, or should I say Flat Line, fixed everything. Playing at 60 FPS on the RTX 2070 stock frequency for hours with no trouble at all. Thank you very very much!
It also depends very much on the games you’re playing. If it’s Apex Legends neither CPU or GPU will struggle. But if you’re playing demanding Titles like Cyberpunk, it will be hard to eliminate high temperatures when both components need to work hard to keep the frame rate at an acceptable level.
Where you confront the power limit throttling depends on what you're playing. Plus, making a straight line using shift + left click and shift+enter is always better than ctrl+L since setting voltage curve to certain frequency doesn't allow GPU to work with less frequency on idle.
It's definitely an improvement in some aspects, but I would not advise locking the voltage, as this won't allow your voltage to drop below that point even when idling. Ideally what you'll do is start as far left on the curve as possible - in your case, the first node - and raise that node up as high as possible while remaining stable. You'll increase your clock speed at that voltage, and you can flatten the curve after that point so your voltage never increases. No need to place a voltage lock. This essentially undervolts your GPU, as you are achieving clocks that required higher voltages on the stock curve. Of course, every system is different so each person will need to go through some trial-and-error with good benchmarking software and ideally some game benchmarks as well. In my case, I've dropped roughly 10 degrees while under load, while also gaining performance. The reason for the performance gain is because I'm not thermal throttling anymore. It should be noted that I'm using a desktop PC, but lower power is always going to equate to lower temperatures.
Thanks for this video. I was able to get my rtx 2070 non max q up to 1680mhz at 792mv with a max temp of 69c and average of 65c. I was also able to get my cpu (i7 9750h) to stable 3.7mhz max temp of 82c with an average of 70-75c. This was with stock thermal compound on a clevo np8377. Ive done liquid metal on laptops before and will do so on this one as well for lower temps just because.
Apparently my laptop's 1060m N17E-G1-A1 was boosting far, far, beyond its stock clock speed. Making me hit 80-90c from the voltage. Default clock was 1405Mghz and it was boosting to 1800-1900 average. Locking the curve at 1550Mghz has both reduced temperatures by 20 degrees and has not affected FPS in the least. Took a bit of trial and error as going above 1550 induces a driver or... hardware? crash every time, but 1550 seems stable and has reduced voltage from 0.844 max to 0.700 max. 0.556 being idle. Playing a game at the moment GPU temp has now dropped below CPU temp at 59C with the CPU at 74C. I believe the 1060's idle temp is 45C? Overall it's a nice change. To be said I've already undervolted my CPU 7700HQ by 125mv.
*If you do not want to adjust every single little dot in order of making a straight line, the tip is typing a negative number (-1 for example) in the text box where it's written "curve" (bellow the core clock adjust) and apply. When you do that all you need to do is just choose only your undervolt dot, make your adjusts, and pressing apply that all other dots will make a straight line automatically.*
Great guide as always Bob! This help a lot more than undervolting only the cpu since the power draw is a lot lower! I found my 1060 (non max-q) stable at 1544mhz at 0.7V, temperature drops above 10 degree on my acer nitro V15 that got a very crappy cooling system! Now with liquid metal, undervolted cpu and gpu and some cork stoppers to raise the notebook i can finally reach 80 degree under sustained load on both cpu and gpu!
Hi Bob, I've seen the video a couple of times so I was confident to start trying out my machine but I got a little confused right off the bat. I'm running a RTX 2060, i7-9750h on a Lenovo Legion Y540 and ran firestrike to see the standard values. This were the max'es i got on the HWinfo: Temp: 64º GPU Core Voltage: 1.063 W GPU Power: 82.357 W GPU Clock: 1,890 Mhz While running the OC scanner on MSI afterburn the GPU power went as high as 94 W. And i noticed that altho the HW state 1,890 Mhz for GPU clock the highest I saw running Firestrike was 1545 at 96% gpu usage (using the afterburner overlay). With Heaven benchmark runing for 20min i got similar results as firestrike including Temp (might go higher with a bigger cpu load). The Performance Limits I got checked were: Power, Reliability Voltage and Utilization. So everywhere I looked the RTX 2060 laptop is said to have a 1200 Mhz but this seems not to be the case, and I'm a bit confused where I should place my starting point. Can you give me any further insight? Thanks PS: Great video as always, going out of your way to share the knowledge in such friendly way.
Try 791 m.v or 800 m.v thats my rtx 2060 limit any think over that cause power limit Give it + 200 mhz apply and open curve edutor make it flat after 800 or 791 m.v Mine about 220 mhz at 791m.v
I bought the new razer blade 17 3080ti 240hz version and I got upset because the thermals aren't good unless you crank up the volume. I been looking for methods on how to lower the temp and since cpu undervolting is now locked on intel 12000h models this was the best solution, performance is still great too, I went from 73°C in RDR2 to 65° C. Thank you for making this easy to learn video!
I undervolted my cpu to end all throttling and cool down temps. I followed this for my GPU and it also worked for my RTX 2060. I just hope this lasts & this is the end of my trouble shooting and i can enjoy some damn games without looking for PLT.. my cpu puts out a constant 4 ghz while in game due to the UV.
thanks bro honestly laptop was doing my nut in was wating jayz vid about getting more out of the 7000s desktop gpus and he mentioned undervolting i thought to my self could try with the laptop to lower temps and keep performance constant quick google found your vid 10 mins later im running higher clocks lower voltage and lower temps
MSI GE65 Raider, i7-9750H, RTX 2070, cant boost over spec without power limit throttling but great temps. Also have the CPU undervolted with Throttlestop per Bob tutorial as well. GPU: .750 V, 1440MHz, Tavg 70c and CPU -.125 cache -.250 core 3990MHz all core turbo, Tavg 72c. PROSHOT off SpeedShift 0. No throttling of any kind at these settings. Thanks Bob
800 mv is the core clock for all your nodes. All cards have different mhz, thats why it's easier just to check what clock speed is necessary for flatline mod and that is suprisingly at 800mv. To do all nodes press shift + mouse 1 button, drag to select. Than shift + enter until you get to type not difference bet valus for all selected, type the number, in this video 1500mhz, and now all nodes are 1500mhz. Click apply check if there are any uneven dips, try to increase all nodes to the highest dip if not than lower it. You have to make it flatline for flatline mod to work. Now when you get flatline, cuda cores will choose the lowest possible voltage sometimes on some cards they jump in voltages, but cuda will auto select it for you instead of constantly changing locked node. If you are minning, the lowest you can get is 725-730mv on default lock, but with flatline it's possible to achieve on some cards 700 mv. You get very efficient card not only for minning, but for laptop, gaming so on and forth. Also afterwards you play with vram till pc crash, than lower the settings. Due to undervolt it will become cooler, fans won't spin hard, power consumption will be less and more efficient, performance depends as with a bit higher mv you can get more performance, but it will decrease in efficiency. And try to stress test your settings, how hot it is. If its 70c than make fan 70%. After two minutes redo the same step (lets say temp increased 1c we increase fan speed 1%). You will find the sweet spot for your gpu. Instead of running 100% all time, creating noise, increasing power consumption and not necessarily increasing performance. Or auto just does good job too..
thankyou so much for this video, couldnt work out why i was gettin constant drops to 20fps (battlefield 5) even when i lowered the res scale. did everything u said and now i can run @ 100% res and never drop below 80fps even in big fights 😁my 1060 laptop was boosting waaay past what notebook check recommends and ran stupid hot. LOVE U, gained a sub here 👍
Thanks Bob🙂 I was able to undervolt my rtx 2070. Mu gpu dropped from 83degress to a 60-65 degrees. Now i'm able to play Warzone with no GPU worries at all. Thank you again #Subbed
I am not worthy damn, after frying a mobo with metal paste (fortunately Dell covered me with warranty), and doing all sorts of sorcery, finally... filanny a workaround that ACTUALLY WORKS to game in this fine machine and not let it go to waste THANKS!!.
Be mindful when you search for your laptop dGPU especially when there are a couple of different variants for that same model you have. This is at least applicable to NVIDIA GeForce 1650 where there is the original GDDR5 version, and then there is the latest one that uses GDDR6 for its 4GB VRAM. For laptops, it will specifically say it is "Mobile" version e.g. NVIDIA GeForce 1650 GDDR6 Mobile. This is not according to the official naming scheme but it will help with making your search more accurate by using the correct keywords so that you don't refer to the wrong GPU's TDP and base/boost clock frequency.
THANK YOU FINALLY A 2070 MAX Q VARIENT AND THE GUY EXPLAINS THIS PERFECTLY All these people telling you what to do without really going into why it needs to happen
Btw i have a quetion my pc has problems cooling down in the sense it remains at high perfromance even after games are turned off and its in idle how do i fix this
I dropped my Strix 2070 i7 10th gen to 1400 frequency and now my gpu temperature dropped from 87 to 72 while playing warzone. Finally saved me from thermal throttling all the time!!!!!!!!
This is an amazing video, thanks so much. The frequency curve is a revelation. An easy way to tell if you are power limiting throttling is tick the "power limit" section in the monitoring tab in MSI afterburner. 1 = power throttling 0=your peachy 😛. A really quick way to check this is to run heaven or something on a loop in the background, open the voltage curve and just choose frquencyand lock it. Check afterburner and see if the monitoring software graph is pegged to "1". If so you are power limit throttling, choose a lower frequency, apply and repeat. Once the monitor is giving you a flat 0, no more power limiting. I have a metabox (read sager/clevo) 2070 laptop. My 2070 power limits above 1575Mhz.
My i5 was thermal throttling at 99°C and my MX150 at 74°C. I used throttlestop to undervolt the cpu (-125mV) and disable intel turbo boost, capping the CPU to 1.6GHz but keeping it under 60°C. In my case the GPU is the bottleneck, so I don't mind loosing CPU performance. I also undervolted my MX150. Went from 1700MHz 1125mV to 1500MHz 800mV, as for the memory it went from 1500MHz to 2000MHz. I lost 200MHz on the GPU side, but also a lot of thermal throttling thanks to the 325mV undervolt. Now both the CPU and GPU don't thermal throttle.
I filmed a little bit more of it today. I would’ve had this done a week ago but I’m waiting on two very key pieces of information that are an absolute must for the integrity of this review
YOURE THE FUCKING MAN. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING TO KEEP MY LAPTOP COOL FOR THE LONGEST. I went from averaging 85 c to 65 c. THANK YOU. I can finally play Warzone and Apex without worrying about the heat. Thank you. Oh and the best part, no fps was lost. THANK YOU. Worked on my 2070, i7-10750
Sir, You are awesome. I follow your channel because of your unbiased, in-depth knowledge sharing videos on Laptops. Thank you so much for all your insightful videos. Keep doing.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, if you are only running MSI after burner when plugged in, why do you care about power throttling when stock has higher FPS than after UV? Only to have lower temps and look after the components better?
Yeah it can really change up the game 👍 On systems with shared heatsinks it’s also a great tool to curb CPU temps even if the GPU is cool and doesn’t technically need to be undervolted.
I have a GeForce GTX 1650 in my Asus gaming laptop. Its frequency range is 1485 - 1665 MHz. How do I find its power limit? I'm sorry if this is obvious; this is all very new to me and I'm trying to learn! Thank you for your help!
The rest of the explanation was good bob but instead of using a fancy phrase like dial in, if you can clarify what you mean by it, it would help new people more. Let me explain my confusion with that phrase here. So basically dial-in can mean a) reduce the voltage EVEN further at said frequency so it is even lower and hence produces low heat or b) reduce the DIFFERENCE between the stock voltage and your current voltage or in other words, increase your voltage so it gets closer to the higher stock voltage but also gives better performance coz heat is better dissipated. It would be good to know which one you meant by saying dail-in a few times.
The problem with tutorials like these is that 99% of the community wants to just copy and paste what they see on the screen. That’s not how this works. You have to understand the process and do the work for your own machine. Dial it in dude ha ha.
I have a Laptop with a RTX 2060 boost clock at 1200MHz. MSI afterburner does not allow me to set a valeu below 1320Mhz, my power wil go just above 80W and so its Power throtteling. How do i solve this?
Protip: Afterburner wakes up dGPU every 1000ms fot monitoring purposes, even when idle. If you set it to (max) 60s, power drain when unpluged is almost negligible.
I've tested this on 3 laptops now and results are interesting! On 1070 700mv@1500 lower powerconsumption from 115W to about 60W, but performance dropped by 40% so barely worth it. On a 1060 1450@700mv gave about 80% perf at 30% lower wattage so worth it. On a 1650 50W perf was 90% with 1500@700mv, and wattage dropoed from 50W to 35W. Tried my 3060ti desktop with 1600@731mv (below 731mv vram downclocls from 14GHz to 10GHz so not worth it) and perf is 90% of stock with wattage down from 208W peak to 129W peak so 40% reduction. Also tried 5700XT with 1600@850mv, performance was 88% of stock and consumotion dropped by 50%. It seems Turing, RDNA1 and Ampere scales better than Pascal at very low voltage.
This video doing "under MHz" ing because of your reducing mhz. under volting is doing same things with lower voltages. therefore doing same things reduced thermals and power values
@@becuasegoodreason Yeah, I know that, my point is that there is more going on than just clockspeeds as going from 1800 to 1500MHz should drop performance by 15-20%, no 40% so atleast on pascal, going below a certain threshold for voltage drops performance more than clockspeed could count for alone, probably due to powerthrottling and wrong dispalyed clockspeed. In Ampere and Turing you can lower volts further before you experience this.
Thanks man, i've changed the thermical paste and i dont have any good changes. I undervolted both cpu and gpu now the temperatures are 70 °C from cpu and 75 °C from gpu. My "normal" temperatures while playing MW were 86 °C from gpu and maxium temperature of 100 °C from cpu. Thanks a lot.
29-31c over WASD and up to 40c in other spots. I’ve been working exclusively with Eluktronics to make sure this is the best the MAG 15 can be. Sorry for the delay but this is for the consumer and not selfish RUclips views.
Thanks for the content. I got the "Eluktoonics max-15" but from another shop in the UK (Pcspecialist). And because this chassis is so thin, I really need to undervolt it. The thing is that I have never done this and I am very afraid of trying. But you tutorial seems to give a good guide. Although I have seen other software that seemed more simple like the XTU. Anyway, I'm open to suggestions. Cheers.
You can even disable turbo boost to gain much much better thermal performance and also get about the same fps on a gpu intensive game (these days almost all games are gpu intensive). This trick usually doesn't work for mmorpgs coz they r highly cpu intensive.
Is undervolting better or reduce the power limit. On my zephyrus g14 I am unable to use power limit or cover voltage. I only have access to modifythe core clock speeds.
Hello bob i want to tell you that the last part of the video about the rtx 2070 maxp is not clear because of the recording i guess. We couldn't see what have you done on the curve editor to stabilize the frequency/voltage. Many thanks for the great tutorial you are mading for us ❤️.
I slid it out of the way on purpose. Most people just want to copy and paste and that’s not going to work here. But once you get your hands dirty with this stuff it’ll be more clear 👍

Good job as always!
Can you overclock and undervolt the gpu at the same time?
DK - Color olocolor Yes, you can. Bob explained it in one of his previous videos. I undervolted and overclocked 1050ti on my y530.
So does this replace throttlestop for undervolting? I have the Ideapad 720s you reviewed a year and half ago and throttlestop expired on me a while back so I ignored undervolting. I haven't traveled much for work this year so haven't needed to game on it much. This looks like a lot cleaner solution.
androskris This is for the GPU and ThrottleStop is for the CPU.
Reinstall the latest version of TS 👍
Afterburner needs to be updated so that you can just set all the dots to one value.
Usually takes about five minutes but yeah I agree there is a way by hacking into the registry but I don’t care for showing that kind of stuff on the channel
Agreed.
But you can just apply a -100mhz underclock and then bring up the first dot to your desired value then apply again. You will have way less dots to adjust after if any.
@@BobOfAllTrades BTW Forgot to update you guys, You can do the following
Press on the node you want as a reference for the straight line then press shift and Highlight all the nodes with LMB then press shift + (2xEnter) and it will line them perfectly straight.
@@awsan111 good tip
@@awsan111 thank you kindly for the tip, really simple!

I currently am running a MSI GE75 Raider with a 10th gen Intel I7 with a RTX 2080 super and my GPU was clocking at 2000MHz in my curve graph I straight lined it to 1350 I reduced my CPU temps from 95 degrees while gaming to 50-60 degrees while gaming max settings this greatly helped me because my CPU is locked and can’t be undervolted! Big thumbs up!
"Plan the work and work the plan.", that's applicable to life! Excellent quote! Awesome guide man, very helpful!
If you shift then click(click then shift moves the whole curve) on the chart it lets you highlight a range, then if you hit shift+enter after selecting it, you can delete and type in a voltage and it sets the entire range to that voltage, a bit easier than flattening the curve imo.
Temperatures went from 86 to 79-81 you're a real life saver. Running a 1660ti nvidia card. I was hesitant at first but after getting the courage to try undervolting there is a huge improvement not only in temperatures but in steady fps.
If you somehow still see this or get a notification, may i ask what frequency did you set it to, i did the same as in the video about 1290 and i still get around 85-85 temp.

Great video, my GPU was at 85c and it's now at 71c (Hp omen 15)
Thanks a lot !
which version of the hp omen, friend? i have a dc0xxx and im still getting high temps, did that to a 1070 max q and undervolted the cpu using intel xtu and still getting high temps. any other tips? (already repasted it)
I have an hp omen 15 too (with gtx 1060) could you just tell me what frequency you put the graph to ? :P
Thank you so freakin' much man.
I'm running a Lenovo Y540, GTX 1660 Ti, intel i5 9300h and i've been clambering all over the interwebs for a solution to my thermal throttling problem
Fixing the CPU undervolt was a breeze but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to undervolt the GPU (all those numbers are daunting) so that Ctrl+L lock really dialed down that heat issue. I was surprised at the minimal frame rate loss when loading up MHW!!
You're a lifesaver, thank you
Woah do you play MHW:I??
Hi jc how to contact you ?
Thank you so much for your help Bob. My Y540 was running hot at 96 °C CPU and 85 °C GPU. Following both your i7 undervolting guide and this one (got a 1660 Ti) actually did the trick! Now my machine runs at 74 °C CPU and 66 °C GPU!
Subscribed!
Good work!
How about ur fps? I undervolt but fps drop by -20fps
@@zackralph793 I mainly play DMC5 and RE2R, I get 130 fps and 100 fps respectively. You kinda have to find your card's sweet spot, I found mine at 1785 MHz, 800 mV. I did this by trial and error.
@@gsfdahgsdfa is this for the 1660ti?
ive been dealing with thermal issues since i bought my Sager 8th gen i7 8750 with a gtx 1060 6g. Thank you for explaining msi after burner! ive figured out how to undervolt the hot house 8750 but never the GPU. im gaming at 70c at all times and my fps have stayed right where i want them. Great Video, thanks again!
This is a freaking awesome video, with the most clear explanation!! Kudos bro.. My temps dropped from 95 to 85 .. Thank you so much
i dont skip ads for bob :) tnx for all the info it really helps alot!!
CTRL L was the information I was looking for. Thanks.
Strangely, I followed Bob of All Trades' mentioned steps for my TUF A17 with the 1660Ti, and it still boosts to 1950 MHz, with temperatures around 80 to 83 deg C (in GTA 4, maximum 80 deg C).
EDIT: I changed the "Unlock Voltage Control" setting (keeping it enabled) to "Reference Design", and enabled "Unlock voltage monitoring". This seems to have enabled undervolting for me, and my GPU temps in GTA 4 didn't cross 74 deg C during a short 25 minute playthrough. The max frequency is 1320 MHz. Still, thank you very much for this video, Bob!
Bought a laptop from a Hidevolution after watching your reviews. While I wait for it to arrive your videos calm my anxiety hahaha. Great video!
Hahaha same😁😁
Woah, this actually helped a lot! I went from like 85, to staying around 70, thanks!
👍
Thanks a lot for this very informative video. I have a MSI GP65 Leopard with i7 10750H processor and Rtx 2070 GPU.
This machine used to get hella hot with processor temperatures upwards of 90°C on heavy loads and the resulting fan noise was killing me.
I used Throttlestop to reduce the turbo boost at 3.6 GHz (Undervolting did not show any appreciable temperature difference); this contained the processor temperature upto an acceptable 85°C on heavy loads. But the fan noise still remained.
So I followed your steps and fixed the frequency of the GPU at 1420 MHz (The upper limit is 1440 MHz for the Rtx 2070 mobile). Now the GPU temperatures do not exceed 76°C and the processor temperatures also do not exceed 78°C even after hours of heavy gaming.
This has resulted in a marked decrease in fan noise on the laptop, they run quite silent now. I think now I can also afford to increase the turbo boost a bit, in case I need more processing power. 👍👍
Hi, I have core i5 10th and I want to undervolt it, can you help me with throttle stop main settings to undervolt cpu, please 😢 it goes to 100° on gaming with turbo boost 3ghz
I love when people make these helpful videos! sharing their discovery with the World helping everyone out.
Oh good 🙏
But no one never replies back when you ask questions.
Hey bob , you can get a static curve in two seconds just click the last dot and then press and hold shift that way you can drag the whole curve down to 1290mhz then press the first dot and put it in 1290 too and press apply will get the jon done thanks for the tutorial
You can actually make your life a lot easier by just doing the following:
1. Open graph
2. Select your base node that you want to undervolt the following nodes to
3. Shift+LMB and then drag over to select all the nodes past the one you just selected
4. Shift+Enter
5. Input value of desired frequency (if you followed step 2, just pressing Enter will push all the nodes to the selected node's frequency
Thx man!
@@cozaleclyde9585 Glad I could help!
Thank you so much for this! I wish I found this sooner, I was pushing the limit of my laptop and ended up repasting it. Now there's a new paste followed your guide and from 92 degrees I made it down to 66 degrees but clocking my 1070 to 1442 MHz only I'm trying to go higher but not sure what to adjust I'll keep trying. Appreciate all your videos man!
This did it! Before I was reaching 99C on cpu. This also helped me cool my cpu now I'm reaching only 84C on my CPU and 64C on my GPU when playing Dota 2. Haven't tested yet on COD MW. Btw, when fine tweaking the sweet spot, do I raise the frequency first or the voltage? I don't know how high I can go on the 700 volts as the video tackled the fine tuning a bit less
Can i ask did this lower your fps cuz you lowered the frequency?
What unit are you using
how did it perform with call of duty modern warfare?
You should repaste your pc
@@pavlespasic i've had my laptop for a week. Been testing it with CoD warzone. I have a rtx 2070MX-Q and an i7 9750H. The laptop is a HP omen 15. Right of the bad. The performance is sick, only it heats up. Even when using a cooling pad it gets to 99°C.
What i basically did was lower the frequency to 3.6GHz and undervolted till 125mV. This lowerd my temps to an average of 75°C. Sometimes peaking at 81/82. Now because of exams i do not really have a lot of time to test it more so I left it at that point. Performance wasn't impacted in the game. I can run warzone stable at 140 fps (everything on low 1080p). Maybe i've lost 2 frames or something but that doesn't outweigh the temp drop.
This man deserves a noble prize, may god bless you man.
This is a cery good guide, i followed the instructions, without understanding at all, but it worked, I actually increased my FPS and game performance. For reference, I reduced to -45.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! All I did was the yellow line setting and I went from high 80's GPU temp to averaging 68c with a high of 71c while playing Fortnite. So thankful 🙏. My cpu was already ok after undervolting with throttlestop. Happy camper now.
👌
Bob thanks so much for introducing me to this V/F curve. I am in the long arduous process of trying to get a line of best fit.
Maaaaan! I've been waiting for this!!! Thanks man! Your Throttlestop guide pulled more juice from my Asus ROG GL703! Lets see how it goes with the GPU (GTX1060)!!! Again, Thanks a lot!! Cheers from Mexico! Liked and subbed :)
Did it work what frequency did you put your curve to ?
YOU"RE MY HERO! It freaking works! I already undervolted my CPU before but never tried the GPU. Now, my laptop runs Assassins creed odyssey at 63-65C, which is an incredible figure. It also cooled my CPU for some reason, maybe it made my chassis cooler because it lessens internal heat circulation. Thank you for this guide!
The CPU and GPU share the same cooler. Draw heat away from one will help the other 👌
I will try it in a few minutes. Hope it works too for mine
Hey man you are truly a genius and explained it very well , my temperature have dropped 10C while playing bannerlord . Excellent work !
The flat curve works! The FPS now is much more stable than before
This was amazing. I've been having so much trouble with a Dell G7 laptop with an RTX 2070 on it which ran at about 1900 MHz clock speed and above 80+ C for about 15 min of gaming and then throttles down to 300MHz for what seems like forever... Terrible frame rates at that frequency (obviously). Dell support has been completely useless. BIOS updates did nothing. This was it. That magical curve, or should I say Flat Line, fixed everything. Playing at 60 FPS on the RTX 2070 stock frequency for hours with no trouble at all.
Thank you very very much!
It also depends very much on the games you’re playing. If it’s Apex Legends neither CPU or GPU will struggle. But if you’re playing demanding Titles like Cyberpunk, it will be hard to eliminate high temperatures when both components need to work hard to keep the frame rate at an acceptable level.
Where you confront the power limit throttling depends on what you're playing. Plus, making a straight line using shift + left click and shift+enter is always better than ctrl+L since setting voltage curve to certain frequency doesn't allow GPU to work with less frequency on idle.
It's definitely an improvement in some aspects, but I would not advise locking the voltage, as this won't allow your voltage to drop below that point even when idling. Ideally what you'll do is start as far left on the curve as possible - in your case, the first node - and raise that node up as high as possible while remaining stable. You'll increase your clock speed at that voltage, and you can flatten the curve after that point so your voltage never increases. No need to place a voltage lock. This essentially undervolts your GPU, as you are achieving clocks that required higher voltages on the stock curve. Of course, every system is different so each person will need to go through some trial-and-error with good benchmarking software and ideally some game benchmarks as well. In my case, I've dropped roughly 10 degrees while under load, while also gaining performance. The reason for the performance gain is because I'm not thermal throttling anymore.
It should be noted that I'm using a desktop PC, but lower power is always going to equate to lower temperatures.
your post was way more useful than the video. he is underclocking, you're undervolting
@@GraveUypo I'm glad you found it helpful.
Thanks for this video. I was able to get my rtx 2070 non max q up to 1680mhz at 792mv with a max temp of 69c and average of 65c. I was also able to get my cpu (i7 9750h) to stable 3.7mhz max temp of 82c with an average of 70-75c. This was with stock thermal compound on a clevo np8377. Ive done liquid metal on laptops before and will do so on this one as well for lower temps just because.
Apparently my laptop's 1060m N17E-G1-A1 was boosting far, far, beyond its stock clock speed. Making me hit 80-90c from the voltage. Default clock was 1405Mghz and it was boosting to 1800-1900 average. Locking the curve at 1550Mghz has both reduced temperatures by 20 degrees and has not affected FPS in the least. Took a bit of trial and error as going above 1550 induces a driver or... hardware? crash every time, but 1550 seems stable and has reduced voltage from 0.844 max to 0.700 max. 0.556 being idle.
Playing a game at the moment GPU temp has now dropped below CPU temp at 59C with the CPU at 74C. I believe the 1060's idle temp is 45C? Overall it's a nice change.
To be said I've already undervolted my CPU 7700HQ by 125mv.
Good work and that’s how it’s done ✅
*If you do not want to adjust every single little dot in order of making a straight line, the tip is typing a negative number (-1 for example) in the text box where it's written "curve" (bellow the core clock adjust) and apply. When you do that all you need to do is just choose only your undervolt dot, make your adjusts, and pressing apply that all other dots will make a straight line automatically.*
Great guide as always Bob!
This help a lot more than undervolting only the cpu since the power draw is a lot lower!
I found my 1060 (non max-q) stable at 1544mhz at 0.7V, temperature drops above 10 degree on my acer nitro V15 that got a very crappy cooling system! Now with liquid metal, undervolted cpu and gpu and some cork stoppers to raise the notebook i can finally reach 80 degree under sustained load on both cpu and gpu!
Shared heatsink design can benefit heavily from this 🤛
Hi Bob, I've seen the video a couple of times so I was confident to start trying out my machine but I got a little confused right off the bat.
I'm running a RTX 2060, i7-9750h on a Lenovo Legion Y540 and ran firestrike to see the standard values. This were the max'es i got on the HWinfo:
Temp: 64º
GPU Core Voltage: 1.063 W
GPU Power: 82.357 W
GPU Clock: 1,890 Mhz
While running the OC scanner on MSI afterburn the GPU power went as high as 94 W.
And i noticed that altho the HW state 1,890 Mhz for GPU clock the highest I saw running Firestrike was 1545 at 96% gpu usage (using the afterburner overlay).
With Heaven benchmark runing for 20min i got similar results as firestrike including Temp (might go higher with a bigger cpu load).
The Performance Limits I got checked were: Power, Reliability Voltage and Utilization.
So everywhere I looked the RTX 2060 laptop is said to have a 1200 Mhz but this seems not to be the case, and I'm a bit confused where I should place my starting point.
Can you give me any further insight?
Thanks
PS: Great video as always, going out of your way to share the knowledge in such friendly way.
@Oscar Rivers Hey, nop I just Undervolted the CPU and I've been using my GPU as standard config for now.

I bought the new razer blade 17 3080ti 240hz version and I got upset because the thermals aren't good unless you crank up the volume.

Thank you for making this easy to learn video!
This is the best tweak I have ever done to my laptop so far, now my rtx2070 laptop perform the way it should be
What are your tweaks man? I’m using an rtx laptop too but I’m not sure if my tweaks r good enough
@@Alphazor77 Each card varies, so just test.
went from 82-85C down to 74C... this was extremely useful. I have not tested it for long gaming sessions yet but I will in a few days.
I undervolted my cpu to end all throttling and cool down temps. I followed this for my GPU and it also worked for my RTX 2060. I just hope this lasts & this is the end of my trouble shooting and i can enjoy some damn games without looking for PLT.. my cpu puts out a constant 4 ghz while in game due to the UV.
Well done 🤛
Yes thank you, I think these companies want us to fry our hardware so we need a new labtop every few years. Nice to see someone on the consumers side.
thanks bro honestly laptop was doing my nut in was wating jayz vid about getting more out of the 7000s desktop gpus and he mentioned undervolting i thought to my self could try with the laptop to lower temps and keep performance constant quick google found your vid 10 mins later im running higher clocks lower voltage and lower temps
MSI GE65 Raider, i7-9750H, RTX 2070, cant boost over spec without power limit throttling but great temps. Also have the CPU undervolted with Throttlestop per Bob tutorial as well.

You made my dell xps 9570 worth for gaming. Thank you very much!!!
Hey you did that so great job 👍
800 mv is the core clock for all your nodes. All cards have different mhz, thats why it's easier just to check what clock speed is necessary for flatline mod and that is suprisingly at 800mv. To do all nodes press shift + mouse 1 button, drag to select. Than shift + enter until you get to type not difference bet valus for all selected, type the number, in this video 1500mhz, and now all nodes are 1500mhz. Click apply check if there are any uneven dips, try to increase all nodes to the highest dip if not than lower it. You have to make it flatline for flatline mod to work. Now when you get flatline, cuda cores will choose the lowest possible voltage sometimes on some cards they jump in voltages, but cuda will auto select it for you instead of constantly changing locked node. If you are minning, the lowest you can get is 725-730mv on default lock, but with flatline it's possible to achieve on some cards 700 mv. You get very efficient card not only for minning, but for laptop, gaming so on and forth. Also afterwards you play with vram till pc crash, than lower the settings. Due to undervolt it will become cooler, fans won't spin hard, power consumption will be less and more efficient, performance depends as with a bit higher mv you can get more performance, but it will decrease in efficiency.
And try to stress test your settings, how hot it is. If its 70c than make fan 70%. After two minutes redo the same step (lets say temp increased 1c we increase fan speed 1%). You will find the sweet spot for your gpu. Instead of running 100% all time, creating noise, increasing power consumption and not necessarily increasing performance. Or auto just does good job too..
thankyou so much for this video, couldnt work out why i was gettin constant drops to 20fps (battlefield 5) even when i lowered the res scale. did everything u said and now i can run @ 100% res and never drop below 80fps even in big fights 😁my 1060 laptop was boosting waaay past what notebook check recommends and ran stupid hot.

Be mindful when you search for your laptop dGPU especially when there are a couple of different variants for that same model you have. This is at least applicable to NVIDIA GeForce 1650 where there is the original GDDR5 version, and then there is the latest one that uses GDDR6 for its 4GB VRAM. For laptops, it will specifically say it is "Mobile" version e.g. NVIDIA GeForce 1650 GDDR6 Mobile.
This is not according to the official naming scheme but it will help with making your search more accurate by using the correct keywords so that you don't refer to the wrong GPU's TDP and base/boost clock frequency.

a tutorial for underclocking cpu would be great too, this was a great tutorial
This should be tittled undervolting for thermals guide for laptops as your undervolting and underclocking at the same time.
This is an amazing video, thanks so much. The frequency curve is a revelation. An easy way to tell if you are power limiting throttling is tick the "power limit" section in the monitoring tab in MSI afterburner. 1 = power throttling 0=your peachy 😛. A really quick way to check this is to run heaven or something on a loop in the background, open the voltage curve and just choose frquencyand lock it. Check afterburner and see if the monitoring software graph is pegged to "1". If so you are power limit throttling, choose a lower frequency, apply and repeat. Once the monitor is giving you a flat 0, no more power limiting. I have a metabox (read sager/clevo) 2070 laptop. My 2070 power limits above 1575Mhz.
@Sam what CPU do you have?
@@s.m.shadow7769 hey 9750h is the cpu and 2070 gpu
My i5 was thermal throttling at 99°C and my MX150 at 74°C.
I used throttlestop to undervolt the cpu (-125mV) and disable intel turbo boost, capping the CPU to 1.6GHz but keeping it under 60°C. In my case the GPU is the bottleneck, so I don't mind loosing CPU performance.
I also undervolted my MX150. Went from 1700MHz 1125mV to 1500MHz 800mV, as for the memory it went from 1500MHz to 2000MHz. I lost 200MHz on the GPU side, but also a lot of thermal throttling thanks to the 325mV undervolt. Now both the CPU and GPU don't thermal throttle.
oh, i get it! find the curve made of dots and make it straight. thanks!

Thx so much for another explanation, i still don't get it because I don't understand how that voltage curve works exactly...
Sorry if this is a stupid question, if you are only running MSI after burner when plugged in, why do you care about power throttling when stock has higher FPS than after UV? Only to have lower temps and look after the components better?
82-84 to 68-70 on 2080, great vid ty.
Good work!
Thank you Bob, I've learned a lot from you!
Jorge w/ ASUS ROG GL703GM from Portugal
My gpu was reaching 85C and there was power limit throttling. Did the undervolting and bam. Got the max temp down to 70C with no throttling.
Yeah it can really change up the game 👍
On systems with shared heatsinks it’s also a great tool to curb CPU temps even if the GPU is cool and doesn’t technically need to be undervolted.
I have a GeForce GTX 1650 in my Asus gaming laptop. Its frequency range is 1485 - 1665 MHz. How do I find its power limit? I'm sorry if this is obvious; this is all very new to me and I'm trying to learn! Thank you for your help!
The rest of the explanation was good bob but instead of using a fancy phrase like dial in, if you can clarify what you mean by it, it would help new people more. Let me explain my confusion with that phrase here. So basically dial-in can mean a) reduce the voltage EVEN further at said frequency so it is even lower and hence produces low heat or b) reduce the DIFFERENCE between the stock voltage and your current voltage or in other words, increase your voltage so it gets closer to the higher stock voltage but also gives better performance coz heat is better dissipated. It would be good to know which one you meant by saying dail-in a few times.
The problem with tutorials like these is that 99% of the community wants to just copy and paste what they see on the screen. That’s not how this works. You have to understand the process and do the work for your own machine. Dial it in dude ha ha.
I have a Laptop with a RTX 2060 boost clock at 1200MHz. MSI afterburner does not allow me to set a valeu below 1320Mhz, my power wil go just above 80W and so its Power throtteling. How do i solve this?
Thanks, helped me alot with my MX 150.
I guess my ASUS GL703GS is not compatible : -[ . This awesome tutorial stopped at 1:20 for me....
Protip: Afterburner wakes up dGPU every 1000ms fot monitoring purposes, even when idle. If you set it to (max) 60s, power drain when unpluged is almost negligible.

undervolted rtx 2060 max-q from 1335 to 1320 mhz and dropped 7 degrees, still playing with settings but works amazing!
THANK YOU so much, i found text guides but none were clear enough.
Thank goodness everyone has a fairly different way of doing this too. Makes me feel like science is at play here.
I've tested this on 3 laptops now and results are interesting! On 1070 700mv@1500 lower powerconsumption from 115W to about 60W, but performance dropped by 40% so barely worth it. On a 1060 1450@700mv gave about 80% perf at 30% lower wattage so worth it. On a 1650 50W perf was 90% with 1500@700mv, and wattage dropoed from 50W to 35W. Tried my 3060ti desktop with 1600@731mv (below 731mv vram downclocls from 14GHz to 10GHz so not worth it) and perf is 90% of stock with wattage down from 208W peak to 129W peak so 40% reduction. Also tried 5700XT with 1600@850mv, performance was 88% of stock and consumotion dropped by 50%. It seems Turing, RDNA1 and Ampere scales better than Pascal at very low voltage.
This video doing "under MHz" ing because of your reducing mhz.
under volting is doing same things with lower voltages. therefore doing same things reduced thermals and power values
@@becuasegoodreason Yeah, I know that, my point is that there is more going on than just clockspeeds as going from 1800 to 1500MHz should drop performance by 15-20%, no 40% so atleast on pascal, going below a certain threshold for voltage drops performance more than clockspeed could count for alone, probably due to powerthrottling and wrong dispalyed clockspeed. In Ampere and Turing you can lower volts further before you experience this.
Thanks man, i've changed the thermical paste and i dont have any good changes. I undervolted both cpu and gpu now the temperatures are 70 °C from cpu and 75 °C from gpu.
My "normal" temperatures while playing MW were 86 °C from gpu and maxium temperature of 100 °C from cpu.
Thanks a lot.
learned some useful things from this video. keep it up man
dude thank you my gpu is running 10 degrees cooler now.
I can't wait for the mag-15 review. may you please show the keyboard thermals with the thermal camera
29-31c over WASD and up to 40c in other spots.
I’ve been working exclusively with Eluktronics to make sure this is the best the MAG 15 can be. Sorry for the delay but this is for the consumer and not selfish RUclips views.
Thanks for the content. I got the "Eluktoonics max-15" but from another shop in the UK (Pcspecialist). And because this chassis is so thin, I really need to undervolt it. The thing is that I have never done this and I am very afraid of trying. But you tutorial seems to give a good guide. Although I have seen other software that seemed more simple like the XTU.
Anyway, I'm open to suggestions.
Cheers.
XTU is for the cpu
@@BobOfAllTradesthanks for the answer! So, could I do the undervolting of the CPU in the BiOS and then use your method to undervolt the GPU?
Cheers
Of course you can 😀
You can even disable turbo boost to gain much much better thermal performance and also get about the same fps on a gpu intensive game (these days almost all games are gpu intensive). This trick usually doesn't work for mmorpgs coz they r highly cpu intensive.
Monkey D. Luffy Very true and as you said definitely depends on the title as well as the individuals performance preference.
@@BobOfAllTrades Haa right. Thanks. 😄
What is that website which gives you your GPU memory frequency and tdp? Help would be appreciated.

Thank You Very Much Sir, Keep up the Good Work
It worked from 86° to 75° 🙌🙌😎
How can i change FAN rpm on a laptop?
great video ;D thx for that!
cant wait to tweak my strix :)
Is undervolting better or reduce the power limit. On my zephyrus g14 I am unable to use power limit or cover voltage. I only have access to modifythe core clock speeds.
on my Lenovo Legion Y740 with RTX 2060 - temp drop by 6-7*C and around -17w less power consuption :) worth effort.
Hello bob i want to tell you that the last part of the video about the rtx 2070 maxp is not clear because of the recording i guess. We couldn't see what have you done on the curve editor to stabilize the frequency/voltage. Many thanks for the great tutorial you are mading for us ❤️.
I slid it out of the way on purpose. Most people just want to copy and paste and that’s not going to work here.
But once you get your hands dirty with this stuff it’ll be more clear 👍
Many thanks dude i will try to sort this out.
Great video, but what website are you using that gives you the frequency ranges? I can't seem to find that one in particular.
