Hello, after like 2 years of usage it came to my mind that i should start undervolting. So i looked stuff up and tried to build some knowledge, but i am kinda stuck now. I set a Powerlimit 170/125w which drastically reduced fan speed, temps and energy comsumption at the wall socket i am metering. Then i tried undervolting in the ASUS Bios, i changed the „Global Core SVID Voltage“ to „adaptive“ and Offset to different values. I tried: -0.06 -0.07 -0.08 -0.09 I can see that its working, because in HWinfo at Voltage Offset its showing the offset value i configrued in BIOS.

But the results are basically identical to each other. The power consumption at the wall is identical, the Temperatures are identical (72°C), the Fan (Dark Rock Pro) is always at 930rpm. Cinebench 2024 shows slight differences, 1391 - 1305. At -0.09v after 5min Cinebench i got a BSOD.

But its strange that only the Power Limit made a noticable difference by the undervolting does not.

Am i doing something wrong? See attached measurments

Thanks
