QUOTE(shady @ Jun 3 2009, 05:20 PM) How u did that? AMD Overdrive? Undervolting is good to keep low temp and reduce power consumtion. i use k10stat tool to play with my VCore and multiplier Not sure but mine worked and I checked the driver is installed. Not sure I installed it manually or Windows provide the driver. Finish tuning my max clock Vcore. i downvolt it to 1.01V... now full load temp down to 94C from 100C++ (Stock setting) Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(iq_myst @ Jun 3 2009, 07:09 PM) other than this advance method, i just use balance power plan in vista. i also changed the max prcessor state to 80% only. yea i know... but i try to maximize what i got. Coz i buy the laptop default speed is 2.2GHz. So tweak it to run at 2.2GHz BUT with a lower voltage so that i get lower temperature and same performance.i noticed the fps when playing games is reduced a bit but there are no more noticable lagging as the lappy doesnt reach up to 100C. i feel very comfortable using balance power plan instead of high perormance. Here is my tweak 2.2GHz 1.01V 1.1GHz 0.80V 550MHz 0.75V  |

open prime95 then click for torture test. then chooser small fft option. then it will torture you processor till it scream
if you wana test 1100mhz and 550mhz just change 2.2GHz state and 1.1ghz state to 550mhz speed by changing the did to 2 FID 14 DID 0 = 2.2GHz FID 14 DID 1 = 1.1GHz FID 14 DID 2 = 550MHZ good luck This post has been edited by tictac: Jun 5 2009, 06:46 PM |
