Hello, I'm just starting out with undervolting and overclocking. My configuration looks like this:

Processor: Intel Core i7 13700K
Motherboard: MSI Z790 Gaming Plus with Wi-Fi
RAM: Kingston DDR5 32 GB (2x16GB) at 6000MT/s KF560C32RSA-16 FURY Renegade
Storage: Samsung 990 PRO 1TB SSD

In summary, I've kept the P-core and E-core ratio within limits of 54:44. Here’s the image you can check:

Both PL1 and PL2 are fully unlocked (unlimited 4096W). I've set the CPU core voltage mode to offset -0.100, and the CPU load is configured for profile 9. I've disabled CEP support, turned off Enhanced Turbo Boost, and achieved a R23 Cinebench 31700 score in multi, which is great.

I found some videos showing my PC idle and during benchmarking with HWInfo enabled. If anyone with experience can review the voltages and confirm safety, that would be really helpful.

I'm looking for advice, suggestions, and general thoughts on these settings. I saw a few simple undervolting guides and hope I did it correctly. Thanks!

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
These links might be useful:

and this

Would help a lot.
Thanks in advance, everyone—I really enjoy this Reddit section! Cheers <3

Yes, sorry
I accidentally didn't remove that section
And thank you for your help, I've already looked at many posts on Reddit, which is why I recorded my voltages during idle and benchmarking. So, can someone with experience confirm if these voltages are safe for this CPU? I noticed everything under 1.45-1.5V is fine, but I'd appreciate your advice.
