Hey there! I'm just starting this undervolting adventure, especially since I only own portable laptops and most of them have locked controls. But now I've got a brand new Clevo gaming laptop, and I followed some tutorials using ThrottleStop to lower the voltage. I think I managed a solid undervolt. I'm here to hear your thoughts—do you have any advice? Should I tweak other settings? Or maybe just say thanks for the help? Either way, good job!

Here are my specs along with my best Cinebench R20 results so far:

- **CPU:** [Your CPU model]
- **RAM:** [RAM amount]
- **Storage:** [SSD/HDD type]
- **Graphics:** [GPU model]
- **Benchmarks:** Minecraft, League of Legends, Killer, Stellaris

My main question is: Should I try overclocking the CPU as well? I've heard most people say no for laptops, but I'm curious why that is. I know you can undervolt and overclock at the same time, so I'm not sure what the difference would be on a laptop.
