I am very very pleased with the result.
-30% power limit
-40 mV Voltage Offset (for the GPU)
Max Frequency raised to 2750 MHz
When playing Ghost of Tsushima, I got 270 fps and GPU was drawing 220W (compared to stock value of 316W)!!!
Both the CPU and GPU were running at temp around 50 to 56 degree C so the GPU fans didn't even start!!! WoW!! This card is amazing.

I’m on the other side of things. I have a 1200 watt power supply and lots of fans, so if I adjust anything, I might just set the power limit to maximum to achieve the best performance.

If you set your power limit to maximum, are you referring to overclocking, which means boosting the GPU's power consumption? If that’s the case, I’ve heard that for some RX9070XT cards, doing so can cause problems. I’m not entirely clear on what that really means. Most YouTubers praise the RX9070XT in terms of undervolting. My reason for upgrading was that my gaming laptop stopped working due to overheating, and I own a good cooling stand like the Ilano V12. It can lower the temperature by about 15 to 20 degrees Celsius, sometimes even more. However, when I was playing Ghost of Tsushima with Legend mode online, the GPU temperature reached 85°C while the CPU hit 95°C. That happened when the Ilano V12 ran at full speed. I had to wear noise-cancelling headphones while gaming. I spent around $500 on repairs, and the shop told me there was a hole near the CPU socket where the CPU was seated. They replaced the motherboard. Now I’m considering getting a desktop for longer gaming sessions. Maybe it’s because of the laptop’s poor design or the high demand of certain games. If anyone has a gaming laptop, make sure to clean the fans regularly—every 3 months or even monthly if you play daily. Otherwise, opt for a desktop with an AMD GPU that allows undervolting.

I have a desktop with a mesh case, six case fans, and a dual tower air cooler for the CPU, providing ample cooling.
In the initial part of the video about undervolting, he mentions it briefly.
