Undervolting pet

[bigpuppyfan]

Made a PET, for an undervolting tool for intel CPUs since Haswell, from https://github.com/georgewhewell/undervolt

Or, if you prefer to compile it yourself (assuming python 3 is installed without pip, such as in Fossapup64):

Code: Select all

pkg get python3-pip

python3 -m pip install undervolt

Note that this is not the same as underclocking/frequency scaling. Both can be combined.

Reducing 50-100mV is generally stable, e.g,

Code: Select all

undervolt --core -100 --cache -100 --gpu -50

But there are plenty of guides out there in the web. Although personally have not noticed any significant drop in temperature on an i5-4300
