Hello guys, i'm completely new to this forum so i apologize in advance if i'm posting in the wrong section.
The issue is a i7 7700T on an ASUS b150m-k motherboard :
I wanted to undervolt it to reduce temperatures and wanted to raise long duration package power limit , but the only thing that let me do this was the Intel xtreme tuning utility, that worked well with an undervolt on core/cache of -0.100 and a turbo boost tdp limit now at 65w... thing is that after stand by or two days for example my custom profile is no longer applied on startup.
So i went into the bios to change the same settings, found and applied the undervolting by using a core voltage offset -0.100 that works fine, but i need to edit the power boost thingy aswell or i'll get power throttle again due to 35w tdp of the CPU.
So i found this "long duration package power limit" and short "duration package power limit" , i just assumed it was the same settings as it was shown in XTU for tdp limit, and changed them from auto to 65w and 75w respectively.
Since then i'm running the computer quite fine, CINEBENCH scored equal to the pc with the XTU profile applied and temps are the same (reduced by 5-10 degrees when comparing to leaving tdp unleashed in XTU).
Do you guys have any advice? Is this safe? Am i doing things right?
I'm really noob at this, only thing i've ever done in bios was FX 8350 overclock
Help!
