for past week i have been trying to understand more about undervolting and 3-4 days before this post, i tried after following multiple guide + reading reply from UNCLEWEBB on lot of forum.
i need some advice with undervolting my laptop
My device is
-Illegear Raven
-i5-8300h
-GTX1050Ti 4GB VRAm
i know TONGFANG is the manufacturer, but i cant seem to find the exact same configuration of mine with tongfang version.
where can i find all model of tongfang? been trying but cant find the answer.
Ok lets start with the undervolting topic
First i start with stock config and run cinebench, and got about 16xx mark with (pl1,pl2 under CPU) and (edp other under all three tab cpu/gpu/ring)
Then i go for undervolting using Throttlestop.
here is what i configure

In main menu,
-enable log file
-enable speedshift epp, setting 80
In Option,
I enabled/tick
-Do not reset FID/VID on exit
-Battery monitoring
-Start Minimzed
-Minimize on close
-Click on MHZ to minimize
-Tick Nvidia GPU
In FIVR
-Max out turbo ratio limit ( 40-40-40-39 to 40-40-40-40 )
-Tick/Enable Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limit
-tick/enable OK - save voltages immediately
-tick/enable unlock adjustable voltage and Adaptive on both CPU Core and CPU Cache
-Max out skyhigh the IccMax under both CPU Core and Cache
-change the Offset Voltage Value ( according to pics given i tested with multiple value; more below further )
In TPL
-change Turbo Boost Power max from 50 to 60
-Tick/Enable speedshift and enable speedshift when ThrottleStop starts.
Method of testing
1- change offset value, keeping core and cache at same value
2- run Cinebench R20
3- if no crash SS all data (ss of cinebench, setting in option,TPL, FIVR CPU core, FIVR CPU cache), then increase undervolt by 10
4- repeat 1-3 until crash
5- once crash, i decrease CPU Cache by 20
6- repeat step 1-3 without change CPU Cache Value until crash
7- once crash, drop the CPU Core Value by 20
8- now, i consider it passed the CINEBENCH as it stable, (with result of -170mv on both CPU Core and CPU Cache)
9- then i run TS Bench (Throttlestop Bench) with setting of; 1/2/3/8 Threads and 6144M (P/s; as i run the TS Bench, im using the computer too browsing the internet, as im looking for error not score so i dont think its a problem?)
10- if got error, decrease value of CPU Core and Cache
11- Repeat until no error at 1/2/4/8 threads with 6144M
12- ended up with values of -150 on both CPU Core and Cache
#### continue reading below if you checkout the document ###
now with -150 on both CPU core and CPU cache, i consider it as best performance i can get.
but i still want some experts advice on my setting.
#Testing another configuration
i found another forum with same CPU, success with value of CPU Core -200, and CPU Cache of -125.
I tried with this setting, passed Cinebench stability.
As the time of writing, i am running TS Bench to look for error.
what are your thoughts? can share some opinion?
my main target is want to maximize performance AND maximize device life by undervolting.
if i raise the PL1 or PL2 values, in long term, does it have any bad effect? i read somewhere it could fry the CPU in long run. however its does not state the temperature of CPU, i mean if temperature is below 95C, will it damage the CPU? if not, i'd like trying to increase the PL1 values. If it does damage the CPU even if the temperature is good, I'd rather not to change PL1 values, but maybe increase PL2value/turbotimelimit
Thanks in advance ! It will really boost my confidence if Developer of ThrottleStop, UncleWebb reply in this thread !
Also, i tried looking to enable LIMIT REASONS in the log file but cant find it, so i just proceed with test. once i just checking the log file, and it was actually enabled by default ( was stress-testing with aida64-all stress except disk stress ) but too bad, i didnt know which till which is the log file for each test, as i do it consecutively and it in one file
If you want a log file of specific values/settings, just share your opinion, I'll do it.
i just register for this forum, sorry for inconvenience and
sorry for my bad english.
update; with testing configuration purposes( CPU Core -200, CPU Cache -125), TS Bench just finished, here are the picture
UPDATE #for references;
testing with CPU Core of -200 and CPU Cache of -125, PL1 raised to 50, PL2 raised to 60.
