there are tools available to adjust the voltage settings on ryan zen processors, though undervolting requires caution. for your 5800h in a legion 7, throttling can help manage performance and battery life. check if your motherboard supports power management features and consider using reputable software like HWMonitor or Speccy to monitor and adjust settings safely.

Chipset drivers and Ryzen power settings act as a basic dimming feature. Reducing the power cap effectively lowers its energy usage.

Two are distinct concepts. Lowering the voltage decreases both voltage and current at the same frequency, keeping performance consistent or improving it (subject to constraints). Cutting the power cap lowers frequency to cut energy use, which means performance drops.

That's what I meant generally, but from what I've seen, undervolting tends to lower the frequency unless temperature is a factor. I haven't tested it on a laptop yet.

I'm working with the 5800H under heavy load, reaching 95 to 100. Living in a warmer climate with an ambient temperature of 36°C, I considered undervolting. Have you tried this on Ryzen laptops before? Is this a one-time adjustment in the controller, or do you need to switch between power-saving and performance modes manually each time?

You might want to try Ryzen Master, though it’s unlikely to adjust the voltage settings. Thanks for not using laptops often.

I don't believe Ryzen Master functions on laptops. The alternative controller doesn't allow voltage adjustments, just power restrictions.
