To undervolt? To overclock

Folks, Ive read a few articles about undervolting...
Am I right in saying the advantage of undervolting is basically achieving lower power usage?
And consequently allowing the GPU to boost by itself to a higher clock?

What is the rule of thumb about undervolting?

Can an undervolt be used + an overclock?
 
GPU boost doesnt work when you do that with the voltage curve, so you have to target the speed you want to achieve, with the voltage you want the card to run, and flat line it after that.
 
Cheers, will check this out.

Incidentally I am not sure why when I alter the GPU/voltage graph, and click apply I dont get a straight like, it still steps up a little towards the higher voltages....

It will happen sometimes, it takes a couple of tries until it stays where you want. If by any chance it messes up the graph you can press the standard Undo command ( Ctrl + Z ) and it will revert the changes so you dont have to start from 0 again.
