You should evaluate the -0.225v offset carefully. Since your PC experienced a crash while idle after turning it on, it’s wise to verify if that voltage setting is safe for stability. Your under-volt readings seem acceptable, staying within normal ranges. For lower temperatures during load, consider adjusting cooler settings or using fan tuning tools. When maximizing temps on Intel XTU, you can push the GPU similar to what MSI achieves with Afterburner, but monitor closely. The hardest games for you are CPU and GPU-intensive titles like Escape From Tarkov, so balancing thermal performance is key.

Adjusting frequency by reducing it is called underclocking. Changing voltage levels by lowering it is known as undervolting. It looks like you're using the same term for both concepts.
