He is active in the thread and helpful with any issues-just please make sure you’ve searched and read the documentation before asking for help from him. Unclewebb is the developer, who has been working on ThrottleStop for years now (I’ve been using it for over 5 years, and it’s been in around for quite a bit longer than that) and is still adding features to this day. ThrottleStop! Head over to The ThrottleStop Guide thread at NotebookReview and get the latest version from the first post. Again, although this is a safe process with little to no chance to damage any components (in fact, it should increase their longevity, as they will run cooler), proceed at your own risk! What you need The worst thing that can happen is that if you reduce the voltage too much, the computer may crash, and you will have to decrease your undervolt (that is, give a little more voltage back).Īlthough I’ve never heard of anyone’s computer ever being damaged by a software undervolt, please note that we are is in no way liable for any strange act of God or transdimensional undersea being that may damage your computer if you proceed. What’s the catch? Actually, there is little to no risk involved.
Why does this matter? Lowering the voltage, even by relatively small amounts, reduces the power draw of the components (in this case, the CPU) and thus decreases the heat generated while increasing battery life. What is “undervolting”? Undervolting means to reduce the voltage a component receives. On the other hand, this guide does not address the hardware-level changes you can make to further tweak your laptop, like re-pasting your CPU/GPU with a high-quality thermal compound, upgrading your SSD, etc, but if you’re interested in these topics, drop me a line in the comments section at the end of the post and I’ll address them in the future. As I mentioned in the first section, these tweaks have increased the battery life of my QHD+ Razer Blade 2015 from 4 hours to 6, increased my 3dmark11 score by about 10%, and reduced thermals and noise emissions.
