hihi, some background on this, my laptop was reaching quite high temps at times at it really did scare me. to battle this, i ended up undervolting my cpu by like 60 and when finding other solutions, i stumbled upon this video. it definately does work, but im unsure if disabling this was safe? i understand my performence will go down to due this and im fine with experimenting with it, but i was just wondering if this was even a good idea? both used to be at "aggresive", but ive changed that now. is this safe?1724824336378.png

adding on, will disabling the overclock protection in my bios cause problems with this? any help is appreciated, thank you <3

Better watch something like this

You don't need to do anything else unless you're a computer learner, but it's safe.

i have turbo boost disabled using the same method and it reduced my CPU temp by about 10 degrees in normal use.
i haven't noticed any system slowdowns either on my Ryzen 7 5825u laptop CPU.

hope this is of help, best of luck. Steve ..
