Intel 12 13 14 gen undervolting to 75w? (alien.top)

I come here with a question about undervolting the processor to ~95w

I wonder which of these cpu generations can reach 95w without significant performance loss

I would like to ask you to provide the values and in which games they were tested

ps: I'm writing about 95w because I have an i5-9600K, so the higher power consumption (250w) is terrifying for me *including the graphics card power consumption

Undervolting doesn't reduce performance but it risks stability. You won't hit 95w under heavy load with any of those processors through undervolting. A lot of games are pretty light loads though, so they may already be less than that. If not you could put in power limits which reduce the CPU clock speed. This will make it slower though.

Fwiw max load of the 9600k is above 95w already unless you're limiting it somehow.
