Hi, for the Intel Core i5-5250U at 1.16GHz, you can safely undervolt between 0.8 and 1.0V depending on your system needs.

Each CPU behaves uniquely. The safest approach is to slowly lower the voltage, perform tests during the transition, and monitor for stability or blue screens. If you notice blue screens or issues, revert a few clock cycles and record the state.

Yes, you should definitely do bench.

Execute a stress test following every modification to assess stability during high demand.

Yes, you'll need an XTU.

The system doesn't recognize the xtU format.

The easiest option is the TS Bench button at the bottom of Throttlestop. Alternatively, you can install OCCT and perform a stress test using it. Relatively straightforward.
