Razer blade 15 undervolting with ThrottleStop⮜iDATUS⮞ 

Do check out the other posts I did after this one for other ideas and methods. I do need to post some more. Thanks for your feedback.

im just curious as how is your temps so far, idle and gaming. I have the same unit to date

Great results. You might like to know I have learned a hell of a lot more about throttlestop and how the intel behaves since the posting of this video. You probably have but if you haven't check the rest of my content out. Its all dedicated to tech and product guides, mostly on Razer. Done a lot of research and testing and very surprised on results and what you can do. Real life examples to follow. There is a detailed guide to throttlestop settings and options I did which is a great reference, even for me as its not easy to remember. Check this out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xej2Lo5HYzQ.html Consider subbing up if you haven't already and check out the patron options ⮜iDATUS⮞

Brill, please check out the more up to date throttlestop guides. ru-vid.com/group/PLA31rku1BK2qTXj-VPQm5NVc3jNgNaF9J I discovered a lot more since this upload.

@@iDATUS TY man

Thank you, there are a lot more throttlestop videos since this that explain much better what's going on. ru-vid.com/group/PLA31rku1BK2qTXj-VPQm5NVc3jNgNaF9J Questions please ask.

Jatin, thanks for the kind words, I use the videos myself to remind me how it all works, friggin complicated isn't it. But what I will say is that you have ultimate control of your i7 and 8750h or any other, IF you know how you are going to use your laptop. You could use profile 1 for short burst power, 2 for sustained, 3 & 4 could be battery or specific program or combination. I did mention epp in 8.70.6 video (i will do a 9.0 refresh) and it could be useful but I would NOT recommend it for any laptop. May want to read some of the comments for those videos. The options video also mentions battery, you can get it to automatically switch profile when it goes to battery say profile 3. I then set a battery level when reached (85%) go to profile 4. Note also that when a profile changes you can get it to run scripts. I would do one to say stop services etc. I will be doing more videos on this at some point.

Thanks for posting and yes I am looking forward to it as well. It will be a real eye opener for all! Delay is due to me fast learning on how to build a WordPress iDATUS website to go with the iDATUS RU-vid channel. I've not done much with gaming mode set BUT that said reducing voltage etc will still reduce the power and coolness. Check out my latest upload, its entertaining and has practical examples. If your not using all the cores at the same time and the program (game) isn't sending a single request which is multithreading then you can have different cores running at different speeds. Will explain more in the update. I got so many videos lined up its madness. ◄iDATUS►

@Chris, each case is different. The voltage is a must if your system can take it, which the settings I show are easy obtainable. The default core settings don't really suit any situation I have come across and it really depends on the app you are going to run. I have done a more detailed video recently on what the options and settings do which may help you somewhat. I have many more videos on this subject in the pipeline and a bit overdue, mainly due to research and testing. Plus I have just ordered a 4k video grabber to show actual results I obtain. For now until I have done those videos, if using the mains, put all the cores on 36 and have synapse on gaming mode. Windows power leave on default which is balanced.⮜iDATUS⮞

@@iDATUS Thank you! I got a successful undervolt of -125mV on the core and cache and -40mV on the igpu. I might try to go further later, but temps under load are way better now at 75c. One strange thing though that I can't seem to figure out is I am getting a PL1 power throttle only on the 12 thread benchmark. The max power is 43w, and temp is 75, so its not a hard power throttle or thermal throttle. I thought it might be the turbo limit timer but after disabling that it is still persisting. Not sure if its related, but I'm also having an issue where the clock speed won't boost up higher than the lowest setting for a 6 core boost, so even though I have a single and double core boost of 3.7, a two thread workload won't boost bast the 6 core boost of 3.4, and it's not indicating any power or thermal throttling. Any ideas?

@@ChrisKuiperBelt CPU is rated at 45W and if my understanding is right PL1 is telling you its reached that limit, if its yellow then it was probably a spike. If its red then its happening all the time. What I need to do is test a bit more (you guys giving me this feedback helps) is what happens when you enable Razers (or something similar in other manufactures) Game mode as that increases the limit to 68W I think. Your second question referring to frequency, this is part of the testing I will be showing in upcoming videos. Just because you have a 1 or 2 cores at a high level to the others, doesn't mean the cpu will choose them to do a single or double thread.

hey man can you please tell me your settings? i'm also using Razer Blade 15 1070 max q config TIA

Thank you for comments on how good the video is. I have posted a lot of info to the other comments below and they should help you a lot. I think you mean 14 day for money back? So if that's right you have a brand new Razer and if that's so I doubt very much there is anything wrong with it. I have learned a great deal since this video and will be doing a new guide soon which will explain some very interesting things and be a huge eye opener for all. SO MY BAD, Did you click the "Turn On" button at the bottom of the main screen? If not do so. Don't set the TS bench number of cores to 12. Set it to 2 or 4. I will explain in the next video. Make sure you do SET SYNAPES to Balanced power. Let me know how you get on and or if you have more questions. I am here to help ;) PS Nice to hear from a French person. ◄iDATUS►

@@iDATUS Hi! I love your videos and am new to throttlestop. I own a Razer Blade 15 2070 Max Q (Mercury Edition) from 2019 and would love to know if there is anything else that has changed or is important regarding my model. It would be very much appreciated if you could help me out. :)

I don't blame Razer or anyone else for removing settings from the bios. There really isn't much scope due to limitations of formfactor and components. Manufactures use a lot of extra hardware to control the components to keep them cool. I can't imaging the number of calls support would get from those wondering what happens if I mess with this etc. For those who want to dabble you have to find tools such as Throttlestop. Bet that OLED looks nice.

@@iDATUS These laptops are too thin for proper cooling so to get the best of both worlds you need to undervolt. The only thing I can do on my new model is disable turbo boost which reduces temperatures but also performance.

Just keep everything at CPU design wattage, mine was 45w yours is probably 50w and under volt. The mhz will rise to that limit of power. Also you can tweak the GPU a bit. If your app is bursty then you can have higher wattage. If I was designing the laptop I would have more vent holes and also use the case to passive heat more.

Excellent choice, may I ask which model you plummeted for? Not that I have read or can see. Might post an video on the bios options as I remembered wondering what you could change in them. Laptops don't tend to be like desktop pro boards probably as they see that option for overclocking. Besides I think its safer doing it with software as bios locks would be a pain.

I have uploaded the bios screen shot video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AaasDwEr72o.html

Thanks for posting a comment and asking an interesting question. For anything none related to dedicated GPU work like the NVidia the CPU does the rendering. This obviously will create heat and warm the rest of the CPU which we are trying to keep as cool as possible. The CPU is the major heat provider in the laptop and effects the performance of the NVidia. CPU throttles at 90C the NVIDIA at 70C and they share the same heat sink. See my more FPS or Cooler upload for a better explanation. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R_Ej4V_cQLw.html Also I have learned a lot more about how the CPU and Throttlestop works and that's should be out end of May early June.

Sorry for late reply, my notifications were not working. I have done a ton of new throttle stop videos since which explain a lot better how things work. Check my channel out as there is a throttlestop section. If you need help post again.

Thanks for the nice comment ;) As to your question, hmm good one, I looked up rocket league and looks tremendous fun. I don't know what resources the game uses so I would run undervolt - don't change any settings - leave it running and play RL for a match. When finished see what results for Max Temps for each core and Max power is, also click the limits button to see if you reached any. You can reply to this comment with results so I can give you a better answer. Fan speeds is a good indication on how much stress the RB15's or any machine is having.

iDatus thanks heaps for your reply man I’ll follow this video using this program and let you know how it goes cheers! :D

Have you enabled or have enabled in the bios virtualization? And are you running windows 11?

Matt, you saying to charge the Razer blade battery you dont need to plug it into the mains? OR you cant charge your phone using the Razer Blade?

First off, there is no such thing as a silly question! Throttlestop changes are NOT permanent so needs to be loaded to apply, which is both a curse and a blessing. From memory all the boost does is allow it more power, what this does is allow it to get to a throttling state sooner. You may say wtf would you want that for, well if you have a spiky program you get faster performance. If you have a longer CPU request such as a benchmark then you will run at the max allowed and not notice any difference. I have posted some detailed answers to some questions below (check out phasma) and I plan a more detailed information and process post (like my NVidia GPU ones) for the next tech upload which may be another 4-5 weeks so I ask all to be a little patient.◄iDATUS►

Have a look at my other video which may help. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4Ae_P5_wZp4.html I need to do a newer version one day but for me I set the power not to go above 45W and lower CPU voltage settings. Let me know if you want any more help.

The i7 8th 9th and 10 gen don't quite behave like we would imagine they should. You need to see my other throttlestop series where I explain in more detail how the i7 behaves. ru-vid.com/group/PLA31rku1BK2qTXj-VPQm5NVc3jNgNaF9J

I was going to mention this in your last post and it was going to be a main part of my video until I decided to do a full blown overall of throttlestop. If you have a thread which spans more than one core they all have to run at the same speed regardless. So if you have 5 set to 33 and the 6th core set to 20 they would all run at 20. I would therefore recommend you set all cores to the same level. If you not sure look at my other run cooler or more FPS video where I briefly explain how to see what the number of cores you are using.

iDATUS hmm okay. I wasn’t sure if it was just the stealth and I maybe had to unlock some other bios options? I do a lot of CAD work which is mainly single core a lot of the time, if I set my first core higher will it work then?

@@leeedgecombe unless you put a load on the other cores the fact they are all set to say 39 doesn't mean the cpu is using much power over if they were all set to 25. The cpu works out which core is best to run your process at time its asks for something of it to do. I think in the old days it was fixed to core 1 for turbo.

Thanks for adding a comment and the sub the other day. If you haven't already check out the discussions tab and you should be able to chat in there. Let me know if you try and cant. Video was a lot faster paced than I would have liked but there was a lot to cram it and took about 24 hours in total to do and several weeks research. That being said there are some steps that might not have been obvious and that might be what's happening in your case. But lets see if we can resolve here. Ignore fire strike 1st and lets concentrate on CPU as that's identical to the 4K as it doesn't use screen frame rate. Use the built in TS Bench. Set it to Normal, 12 threads and 1024M. You should get same/very similar results to me. Let me know good or bad as believe it or not I do care ;)

What is ur laptop spec? I have RB 15 early 2019 and used to always hit constantly 90C-97C when playing apex or pubg with medium and some high settings. For playing not so intensive games, for example, Football manager, sims 4, etc. I use idatus undervolting guide ( max 80C ), high settings. For an intensive game, i will just disable turbo . temp average 75-80C.

I only changed what you saw. I forgot to mention to press "Turn on" on the front of throttle stop, just in case that's your issue. Lots of things run in the background of windows, make sure you use task manager to see what's going on. Windows updates and Windows Defender work a lot for a good while after power up. I will be doing an updated version in the near future as I am towards the end of controlling the GFX card series for the Blade. Let us know how you get on and if your still getting issue and see if I can helps some more.◄iDATUS►

Thanks for posting a comment, all good. Q1. How do u know if its throttling A1. Via the limits box. If the Core or the GPU column has anything in then its throttled. Q2. How do u see the total Mhz A2. Main screen, top right - Red box, bottom number, eg. 2340.56 MHz ThrottleStop like all benchmarking, tweaking tools are not that friendly to use. I have noticed some other things I should have added and will probably do a follow up video soon. FYI I am working on MSI Afterburner (GPU tweaks) with Throttlestop as I type this reply. That's going to be split into 4 bite size chunks. Expect it next few days. ◄iDATUS►

Hello Joel and thanks for posting a comment. I have also been getting EDP Other more than I was before and put it down to just me. Done some research and have a couple things to try. Let me do that and get back to you in next 24 hours. PS On my tutorial I didn't say "on the main Throttlestop screen, bottom row of buttons, click the TURN ON button" If you have't done this please do so and let me know. ◄iDATUS►

Ok, For me I have created a customised power plan right click over the battery icon on task bar choose power options Normally it would be Balanced (Recommended) but I selected "Create Power Plan" Then inside there you have 3 options, Balanced, Power Saver, High performance. The high performance gives the CPU more power so can hit limits easier. Make sure when doing the tests you have Balanced set. ◄iDATUS►

If it is still a problem for you - i solved it: intel iGPU profiles causes yellow EDP OTHER. To solve it you need to go either to Intel Graphics Panel or Battery Profiles on Windows - edit all modes and set the intel iGPU profile to Maximum Battery Life, then it goes away. If you need more clairfications, pm me, but i guess we are not noobies here, you'll figure this out.

@@MrDrugmx Sorry I didn't reply to this post when you posted it, I did read it as I do monitor my channel etc intensely and is not like me not to reply within a few hours. After I read it I thought, hmm must look into this and see, a) does it work and b) why and c) is there something else we can do and of course d) brilliant. Just re-read the entire posts to refresh my mind again and answer some other questions posted today. Website is moving very well now and I have the look and feel I want so I must get to it soon and do a new TS upload. ◄iDATUS►

@@MrDrugmx hi, can you give more detail on the process please?

Hello there Alex, thanks for commenting and giving us a SUB, you be surprised how much these things mean to us content creators and the drive to carry on ;) Back to your enquiry, yes I am going to do this updated video and will give it a lot of spit and polish. I think it over in my mind all the time on how I am going to do it as this will be an important upload for me. I update the discussions tab on what I'm doing so check that out. In short though I am getting on with ways people can support and donate both to the channel and my (almost ready) website. Designing as I type this a SweatShirt for me to wear to record my goals and ideas. That's this weeks events. Then I will start on the this ThrottleStop guide. I recommend you read the other comments I have posted on this video whilst you wait and if you haven't already check the other Razer videos I have posted. ⮜iDATUS⮞

@@iDATUS hi again. I try your tips and read more on the net but maybe i have bad cpu , not broken just bad one :) i try everyting i turn on the button to save changes, and try everything from 33x to 39X but always trottle down when reach like 20 - 25% of the 1024M TS Bench , trottle down best at 2.8ghz or 2.6. And my best result is 123 secocds , i try many options from -50mv to -150mv on botch cpu anc cpu cache and -30mv to -50mv on intel gpu. Best results are like -145mv. But yeah on TS Benchmark or Cinebench that requare 100% used of cpu always trottle down. How you reach 109 sec on TS Bench? Is your boost stay of the whole test?

Alex, thanks again for the interaction, most of the answers you need are in this post, the net is full of confusion and missing vital information. I know its where I had to start and a main reason for me setting up this channel to help clear it up some. This video took me about 4-6 weeks of research and trial error before I got it but even then I was still a novice due to lack of info. Since then as I have mentioned I have done some theoretical testing to prove how things work with the intel CPU and how Throttlestop reports/interacts with it. So with all that said be assured you DON'T have a botched, busted, broken, wonky, f-kdup CPU! Phew that's a relief I bet. So I know what you're thinking, why. Answer is simple ThrottleStop Benchmark doesn't work the way we all think it works and I will explain in the next upload. ;) Keep the voltages as I showed you, set the multipliers to as I showed but keep the last one at 35 or 34. Find something else to test before and after, a game or some intense app. Benchmark tools really are just a very rough guide. Can I ask you to comment back on your findings. Tip make sure the voltages are actually 0.000 when you run the before test.⮜iDATUS⮞

@@iDATUS i read everything...just dont work on me...always trottle back at 2.8ghz after couple of seconds. On default no use throttlestop my bench time is like 150seconds after many testing my best is 123 seconds...

I feel your pain but lets be clear don't use throttle stop for bench mark. If you want to use it though set the number of threads no higher than 4. Also make sure Razer Synapse is set to balance not gaming. Do you have anything you use installed on the Razer we can use to test? ⮜iDATUS⮞

Thanks for posting, did you make sure you pressed the Turn On at the bottom of the interface and do you have Synapse on gaming or balanced? Not I am currently doing a new batch of Throttlestop uploads so look out for those.

High MattH214, yes you are correct. This video shows you how to change the settings but the testing is a little out. I found out a lot more since then and trying to do example videos for people to try with me. I have done a very detailed video on the settings and options for ThrottleStop (along with many others for the Razer Blade 15) and if you haven't already check it out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xej2Lo5HYzQ.html Will try my best to get one out for end of next week. I post in the RU-vid discussions tab and will eventually flesh it out more on my website blog page. If you have suggestions or requests then feel free to post. ⮜iDATUS⮞

@@iDATUS yes please explain limit reason, and explain what you should be looking for, what's good and bad how to run ur tests

Noted.

@@kvothe2144 As mentioned I am currently working on the next lot of videos and you will be pleased to know I have found a great way to show a lot more information. Its not via throttlestop but you still use that to change the system. Quite excited about it. ⮜iDATUS⮞ If you're not aware I do a patron system as well, so check that out if its of interest.

Good question. Check out the channel as there are a lot of videos I have done both GPU and CPU since this one. Could do with an update but they are still worth watching. Undervolting should really be done no matter what if you feel comfortable doing it. I suspect your apps use the cpu and gpu depending on tasks at hand. The gpu encoder will be used when creating the output file. The GPU has a much lower threshold of underclocking if it gets hot. The CPU heat transfers some of its heat to the GPU.

@@iDATUS i appreciate it but you didn’t rlly answer my question

@@ZIMISTAK I dont have those apps.

@@iDATUS well those apps are CPU intensive, would undervolting improve performance on cpu based apps?

@@ZIMISTAK Its not any easy question to answer as it depends if you are hitting thresholds for your particular usage. If its bursty rather than sustained then probably leave as is. If its sustained for more than say 10 seconds then I would defiantly do it as you will hit a throttle back which will slow you down until it thinks it has recovered. By default the cpu is at a voltage level to guarantee no issues from intel. I have more up to date videos on my network which explains this better. In short, reduce voltage, set max watts to cpu design e.g. 45w / 50w and you will have a great setup giving sustained power. If you are unsure on how to set max watts, turn off game/performance mode. Set all cpu multipliers to the same number, e.g. mine are all 39.

Thanks for posting, welcome to the Razer Blade 15 club. So 90C is the max the CPU will go before it puts safety measures to the max to stop it going any higher. This will be via fan speeds and power (voltage) reduction which means you will still have a hot , noisy laptop with reduced frame rates. I have done a huge amount of videos and plan many more for the Razer Blade 15 and other Razer items so I recommend browsing my channel. Now if that feels like Razer has let you down a bit then don't, its intel insisting the voltage is set to a guaranteed safety margin to ensure the CPU works. In truth this is actually quite high and undervolting and under clocking is easy and actually gives you more fps in the long term. If you are going to use my guide, note to click the "Turn on" button on main screen. Also the TS Benchmark set it to 2 or 4 cores. ◄iDATUS►

Hi there, check my newer full on guide to more of the options and settings for Throttle Stop. There is going to be a serious of how to's to follow. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xej2Lo5HYzQ.html

Explains a lot. And yes it will drastically cool and depending on your usual give you a sustained smooth power.

Waleed, thanks for posting, no real reason, just seemed this was the most used and or simpler. Not saying thats the case but did to me at the time. This upload is my most popular so may have a look at intels offering and post one at some point. Falling behind a bit I know. ◄iDATUS►

Because right now when playing any games i always on 90C and ramping up to 100C And I'm Using Intel XTU Though

Sorry for no reply, I didn't get notification of posts. This is an old video now and I have done some great work and understanding how the intel i7 works. Go to my channel and see the throttlestop group. Any probs let me know.

@Prin, first of all thanks for posting a comment, I monitor the channel almost all the time I am awake. When you subscribe you can also use the discussion tab on the channel page where I update what's coming soon. OK enough chat lets get on topic. Firstly have you read the other replies I have given in the thread? I have just downloaded the latest version of TS and plan on doing a newer more polished version/series soon as I crammed to much in due to time length. A lot of people view this upload and I want to do a more polished version. From memory though I think it was to do with Synapse being set to game or max mode and or a High Performance plan for power settings via the battery icon on the taskbar? I don't plan on being away from my PC for a while today so please send more info, updates Q's etc. Its the iDATUS way. PS. Just cause I am English doesn't mean I am good at it hehe. Your English is spot on.

@@iDATUS Thanks for replied ! yeah first of all I checked all the power setting that you mention in the video custom balance power with windows as well as balance in synapes software. As you mention idk if that because my TS is newer version than you or I did something wrong, coz even I try with the factory setting and hit the TS bench my temp wont go up to 80c either =/ I will be waiting for you new video ! in the mean time if you can figuring something out please let me know haha! oh OTW I also successfully migrate my 256gb SSD to 1 TB SSD by following your tutorial!

@@Sli3pyI've played my local copy of the video as I keep them all and even I use them, bit like documentation. Using latest version and following the guide using TS Bench at 12 threads and 1024M size about half way through I get PL1. What I didn't know at the time is if its in YELLOW it means at some point it hit the throttle, if its RED its currently being throttled. I had a RED PL1 and the reason I hit the 40W limit. Also note that all cores at 36 failed for me only the 1st 6 at 36 and the last 2 at 35 worked. have you installed any other software eg steam,AV as anything running other than TS will cause it to spike. After turning the laptop on you need to leave it for about 5 mins for Windows and Apps to settle down. Use Task manager to check cpu is as close to 0% as you can get it. As for chat app I was thinking of using Signal what you think?

@@iDATUS Thx for reply ! yup I have a several software like MSI afterbunner, logitech and synapes but no Anti virus tho. I always like always get EDP other on the ring and PL2 on core no matter what setting I use =/. And yup I use signal please add me I think its easier to discuss via that dont u think lol

Will do when I create an account in a bit. Listen, the bad thing I missed in the tutorial is to say click "Turn On" so just in case you haven't I thought I mention it. As to apps just the ones running at the same time as TS matter. Check startup and disable everything not crucial for the test, including Logitech for the test purpose. What we are trying to do is get a nice clam free of distractions environment. You can enable them after. Is the Max power showing very close to 40W?

Thanks for posting a comment. Hmm I am puzzled by a few results I got back then. I just ran a 3D mark test and 2 cores actually went to 100C and 2 others at 97C but the test you show is for TS Bench. What I got at the time was correct but since then I have learned a lot more on how the CPU and Throttlestop works and a much needed and asked for explanation video request is coming soon. I have added a lot of tech comments to this video which you might find of interest. Concentrate on the voltage decrease I showed and use a different benchmark tool, that was just for example. Try putting your cores at 39,37,37,36,35,34 ⮜iDATUS⮞

I just changed Synapse to Gaming mode and high performance on power and got 74.6W. Remember these are peaks and with Throttle down to 45W. What we are trying to is get the performance as if it was 75W but at 45W. Watch my recent post on more FPS or Cooler upload whilst thy waits for my next ThrottleStop Guide.⮜iDATUS⮞

Thanks for posting. The video was a bit crammed and if I was doing it again I would have split it into 2 or 3 parts. The video description helps somewhat but there are 2 main reasons. 1) If you are pushing the laptop to Maximum under defaults you can reduce the wattage to achieve the same or get some more performance. 2) Reduce day to day wattage so everything is cooler and fans are not needed so much which is less noise. You will be glad to know I plan on doing a follow up video sometime next month. However I have just started doing a Graphics series with the MSI Afterburner software aimed at people like you and me from weary to informed. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ooET-Nk62VY.html ◄iDATUS►

iDatus :) thanks dude. Ill look into this

That's another good question. Simple answer is yes. BUT you may have to create a separate performance option (main screen, top left, 4 radio button options, choose a different one). I have read that when the laptop/windows battery saving options kick in they combine with Throttlestop and the CPU could be starved of power. I have not tried it yet but its on the list of things to do for the channel. When I do, I will post a follow up video. You would be surprised how many things you can do to increase battery power. Some compliment, some conflict. If you haven't already look at my other Razer Blade 15 playlist posts where I have discussed battery power. ◄iDATUS►

Thanks dude. Much appreciated.

Not sure if you are still interested but I will be doing a new batch of uploads for Throttlestop and one of them will be for battery

Not easy is it, this was my 1st video on throttlestop and how the i7 works. I have done more since and recommend you watch those and see how you get on. I am actually creating another one right now with some newly discovered information. Expect it in a week or so. If you have something you want to ask please do so.

Just in case, make sure you click "turn on" button, I forgot to mention it in this video

Sorry for late reply I have been on vacation. I have replied to a lot of questions with this upload and can I ask you to read through them as they may help. If your still having issues or question then come back and I will do my best to help you further.

@@iDATUS No worries at all! I did try every fix prescribed, including bios updates. It appears that the EDP Other will not go away. And like before it only happens at idle.

I am happy to help further. Remember Yellow means something peaked it in the past no matter how long ago. RED means its happening now. You will need to leave the Razer for a few mins for it to settle down. Use TASKMANAGER: Start-up tab - disable stuff that's snuck in there that doesn't sound important e.g. Steam Details tab - View Menu - Update Speed - Low : Sort view CPU Note: I just watched mine at idle and it too popped up EDP OTHER if I leave it a while, there is always something that will awake and do something now and then but it should be just that now and then. I just clicked the Ring on the menu and its been clears for long time.◄iDATUS►

@@iDATUS Hi IDatus, thank you for your assistance with this. It still hasn't gone stopped doing it but I am not noticing any performance hits. Would you recommend disabling turbo in the settings for Throttlestop? I have noticed some people saying that can help temps significantly, but I am afraid I might lose significant performance.

@@KungfufightU Have you seen my just uploaded more fps or cooler video◢ It shows how to display all 12 cpu core graphs. Run what you would normally do, game etc for at least 5 mins and see how many cores are being used.◢ Then using GPU-Z use the average and max temps as shown in the video to see if the Razer is throttling◢ Remember you can set up 4 presets with throttlestop and MSI Afterburner◢ If you would like to chat more then for you I would offer wire chat◢ I can also remote control your Razer, its safe and doesnt install files on your Razer◢ Let me know if the video helps and if you want more support from me◢ PS My next tech guide will on an updated Throttlestop. ◄iDATUS►

Thanks for posting your concern as I'm sure your not the only one. Firstly be clear this isn't a Razer issue, all the thin laptops of this calibre have the same problem. I have a new set of videos coming out with several scenarios that anyone can follow on how to get more out of it. If you haven't already watch this upload I did recently. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xej2Lo5HYzQ.html So your options are, buy the Razer (its actually a bit thicker now and slightly better cooling), buy a thicker laptop which has its own issues or something less powerful. What are you planning on using with it as we are only talking hot when you max it out for extended periods.⮜iDATUS⮞

Thanks for posting and all welcome here. Undervolting is a bit bewildering and took me many hours of research to get my head round it. I have posted some detailed answers to some questions below (check out phasma) and I plan a more detailed information and process post (like my NVidia GPU ones) for the next RAZER tech upload. So to try answer your questions, Yellow means at some point in the past you hit a limit. RED means is occurring NOW. DO NOT USE Throttlestop benchmark set to 12 cores, try 4. Also I didn't mention to click the "Turn On" button on the main page, so if you haven't please do. My bad.◄iDATUS►

​@@iDATUS ok i tried some of these things, tried different variations on turbo ratio limits and tried the ts bench on 12 cores (should we be doing 4? and why?) and it showed the (pl1 and edp other) on most of the variations. on ts bench on lower variation ones it didnt show any limits on the 64m size but it would show halfway on the 1024 one and wouldnt stop blinking red. so i decided to stick with lowest on all: made all cores turbo ratio limits 32. I looked up other videos and managed to get some temp lowered on my cpu, was getting 90+ on games now its on 85-87, still not that great of an improvement but i still want to push further and lower my temps down. The settings i currently have are turbo ratio limits: 32 on all cores, cpu core offset: -140.6, cpu cache -131.8, prnt.sc/ri83sq and havent changed the igpu one is it necessary to do the igpu cause i dont know honestly. Even tweaked the graph for gpu with msi afterburner like this prnt.sc/ri7sgw The video i watched did tweaks on speedshfits and turbo power limits as well, prnt.sc/ri7tjd and turned off bd prochot i followed all the steps. Now my question is even after all these i get those pl1, pl2, edp other limits,what are these settings: igpu, turbo power limits, and speedshifts? and is it necessary for our razer blades or just stick with cpu cores and cpu cache offset? I wanna know more about these settings and hopefully make the right changes in settings for better temp on my system, hope you reply. Sorry, if the comment is all over the place, but im still learning this undervolting thing. Thanks

@@kenpachiaf Hello again, yes even after 18 months or more of i7 cpu and throttle stop I just learned something that will explain a lot of your questions. I will be releasing another video very soon, spent a couple weeks making it the best I can. Its a major revelation and I have not seen this info anywhere else. - Have you seen my other Throttlestop videos Throttlestop options ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xej2Lo5HYzQ.html - Understanding i7 CPU series episode i ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AfxxIeyWFd8.html Explains why all cores should be set to the same ratio The series will be 5-7 parts and it will include how to control your application or game and push the i7 even more. - As to the question on number of cores to test, it depends on how many cores the application you are using, uses. - Phew just reread your post to see if there is anything I can add, most of the questions those videos will answer, iGPU core will still create heat and -30 to -40 is easy. Watch the videos and come back to me. PS can you post questions one those videos if its related to them or here if you prefer.

Good question, I have a much better understanding of how throttlestop works since the making of this video and posted lots more up to date guides. In short yes quite a lot.
