throttlestop undervolt

[Finesto]

Hi

Reinstalled windows, bad idea now I have horrible coil whine somehow, disabling turbo reduces it but I rather not disable turbo lol, any recommendations?

Why I'm here though, I tried undervolting again but it's not saving it in the system I guess?

The offsets on the top right are still at 0.00000, any idea?

Whenever you see a bunch of odd ball voltage values in the FIVR monitoring table, that means VBS is enabled and ThrottleStop is not working correctly.

Disable core isolation memory integrity and anything else VBS related. Follow the advice in the link in my signature.

Reboot and delete the ThrottleStop.INI configuration file before running ThrottleStop. Post an updated FIVR screenshot after you get this fixed.

mouse is glitchy on sharex ignore the mouse lol

Did you remember to do this step?

Reboot and delete the ThrottleStop.INI configuration file

Your screenshot shows you still have some old settings from before when VBS was enabled. The cache undervolt will not work until you do this.

I did delete the ini (after i closed throttlestop completely), I'll redownload it give me a minute

I deleted & even got the first popup (u can damage ur laptop) thingy.

Seems kinda buggy still but it looks like its working now

The CPU core voltage slider should be set to Default. It should not be set to 0.3799.

If you deleted the INI file and did a full reboot, you should not be seeing 0.3799 anywhere. In Windows 10 you need to hold down the Shift key to do a full reboot. You can also try shutting down and unplugging your computer.

ThrottleStop FIVR does appear to be working correctly now. You can adjust the 0.3799 back to Default and call it a day. I am more OCD so would not be happy until I made that 0.3799 number disappear after a full reboot and starting ThrottleStop with no INI file present.

I'm ngl, I thought you meant rebooting throttlestop.
I deleted the entire thing, rebooted the laptop & downloaded it again, seems to be fixed!

If you see nothing wrong I think I'm good to go, thanks

One thing maybe, both core & ring show edp other in yellow, sometimes it flickers red but when i'm idle its yellow & dissapears when I clear it.

What is it again?

In the TPL window try setting Power Limit 4 to a value of 0. In the FIVR window set IccMax for the core and the cache to the max, 255.75. This can help with some EDP throttling problems.

Some CPUs seem to be easily triggered. If the above fix does not change anything, I do not know what else you can do.

Try running a TS Bench 960M test. If any errors are reported in any test, add some voltage to the cache.

1). Before changing anything , 95°C max.

2). After changing max "power limit 4" value to 0, both core/ cache iccMax to 255,75. - 89-90°C.


You think it's even more improvable? Atleast I didn't get any errors.

Also does any of this impact performance?

Try running Cinebench R23. Watch for any throttling while this test is running. A 9750H with good cooling and no power limit throttling should maintain the 40.00 multiplier for an entire Cinebench R23 run. No need to do the 10 minute test. Just do single runs.

I usually check the MMIO Lock box just to make sure this power limit does not change.

Only you can answer that question. Do some testing and find out. You might have trouble getting consistent results because your CPU is heating up to the point where it starts to thermal throttle.

It looks like Power Limit 4 is still set to 130.

Repasted this 2days ago Noctua NT-H1.

Its an old picture, I have both to 0 & ticked the lock behind it.
Also what are single runs?, you mean single core?

Single core: 7% load cap, 69-72°C max

Multi core: 100% load, 94% C in the start, halfway down to 86-89°C.

Almost forgot what this was all about, so I should monitor the limit reasons to see if no throttling occurs on full load? Ring's EPD power is still showing at higher temps, although just yellow and clearable.
Haven't tinkered with throttlestop in years so it's chinese again for a bit.
Do I need the Miscellaneous; "Thermal velocity boost, ring down bin & V-max stress"? I do want to eliminate most throttling but I rather not fry my components lol

Try setting PCI Express to maximum power saving.
Control Panel > Power Options > Advanced Settings

This reduces the power consumption of my i7-9750H by around 10W while delivering the same performance.
