I have the ASUS ROG STRIX G16 with a 13650hx CPU, RTX 4060 mGPU and I followed your guide with some tweaks. My CPU used to hit 95-98c on heavy load but after undervolting, it now hits 85-88c on heavy load! My most demanding games rarely go above 80c now. It’s great! Thank you!! My settings: Core voltage offset: -120v Processor cache voltage offset: -100v Efficient cores cache voltage offset: -80v Processor graphics voltage offset: -40v Processor graphics media voltage offset: -40v System agent voltage offset: -40v Hope this helps someone! Happy gaming folks.
Thanks man! That's gonna help me find the nice spot, because i have the exactly same laptop you have but i have only one question, were you on manual mode in armoury crate while tweaking your volts ? Also now that you've undervolted your cpu, did you see any performance drop in your games ?
Glad that was able to help you buddy! Great question. I actually completely uninstalled Armoury Crate and I use G-Helper instead. It's a lightweight app that's made to replaces AC and MAN! It runs SO MUCH BETTER than AC. Within G-Helper, I run my GPU and CPU in Performance mode but I didn't touch voltage settings in there as I use XTU to control that aspect. If you want to take things a step further, you can use Chris Titus's Windows utility to "debloat" Windows and uninstall unnecessary software. This will increase performance as well. Although it might be overkill after undervolting BUT I did that too because.. Why not?? Haha. Now my computer is running cooler and smoother than ever. All my games are maxed out without any thermal throttling issues. It's beautiful. Random tip: If you find yourself running into stuttering issues with a game running DX12, disable CFG (Control Flow Gaurd). I was having issues with BFV until I disabled CFG and now it runs perfectly. Happy gaming friend! @@iemnikk
@@chrodriguezmarydownThanks a ton man ! i googled and found out that armoury crate itself was one of the reason behind the high temps. I'll definitely try the things you've mentioned! and lucky me, i recently started playing BFV lol, and facing shuttering issue as you told, lucky that i found the user having the same machine. Thanks once again, You were a big help!
Thank you! I have the same laptop as you and the settings in this video were unstable during Cinebench 30 minute test. I would get about 20 minutes into the test and the laptop would crash/reboot to old voltage settings. With your settings I ran a 30 minute Cinebench test without issue and had just slightly less performance than I did with the videos undervoltage settings.
the thermals still going to the roof . right now i settled to normal operation (browsing, spreadsheet, light games.. etc) - stays mostly at 40-50ish : -40 on BIOS GHelper set to : Windows Power Mode : balanced CPU Boost: disabled Powerlimits PL1 : 80W Powerlimits PL2: 80W GPU Power: 100W Target Temp: 87 when heavy gaming that requires more power, i set the following: temps around 70 max -40 on BIOS GHelper set to : Windows Power Mode : Best Performance CPU Boost: Aggressive at Guarranteed Powerlimits PL1 : 70W Powerlimits PL2: 80W GPU Power: 115W Target Temp: 85
Just ran a ten minute cinebench test stock. scores with only core isolation off and no undervolt max fans got a 30,120 score. Then tried a basic bios only undervolt at the -30mv, 10 min test got a 30,658. Maybe will try a -50mv next. Def seems to run more efficient and slightly cooler. I'm not gonna go past -50mv cause Im to scared,this laptop was EXPENSIVE! I got the rtx4080 version 👍
undervolting doesnt do anything to your laptop bud, if a specific undervolt fails, your computer just crashes and restarts and sets itself to the last voltage it ran fine on. you're alright experimenting
@@tanishqb385 just did a little undervolt. And my CPU temps are a little cooler and running better than stock, haven't had any issues Soo far. And why would asus put an option for it if it doesn't do anything? And why would Intel let this chip model be undervolted then?🤷🏻♂️👍
@@bhold7197 I get it now, I misread the first part🤦🏻♂️. Thanks for the feedback guys, I have left mine on bios undervolt -30 only and not using so that Intel software, and I can see good temps, and the CPU running at a blazing 5.1ghz at times when playing games and etc.. my next step is to upgrade the ssd's to 2/2Tb Samsung 990pros!!👍
@jkwon85 nice i just recently got the asus strix 18" 4080 version but i haven't messed with undervolting over overclocking yet. definitely need to soon
Unable to start Intel Extreme Tuning Utility because of system incompatibility. XTU is incompatible with Windows VBS (Virtualization-based security) and features that enable VBS if Undervolt Protection (UVP) is not enabled in BIOS. What do I have to do?
On my Asus g18 fresh out of the box with no undervolt it scored 31,838 in cinebench, but with the bios undervolt to -80 and it scored 33,091. I haven't messed with intel xtu yet.
I did a -0.100 mV undervolt on the core, p-cache, e-cache…I’m getting power limit throttling and I’m still hitting like 95 degrees immediately and throttling. Anyone know what’s going on here?
I have enabled BIOS undervolt to -0.80 and it works. However when applying -0.120 in XTU, it appears like it is applied but in HW monitor it is still showing -0.80?
Hi guys! I have an issue with my asus rog strix scar 16 :( Without undervolt, i put the ultimate gpu mode on (the ultimate mode on armoury crate) and my games drop to 40 fps and no max voltage. Someone can explain why? :(
I have scar 16 rtx 4090 but I'm unable to get above 27K pts in cinebench with stock and not even with isolation off and -30 bios undervolt, anyone can help what could be wrong?!
Soo... I purchased the 4080 variant of the Scar 16 after my 4090 unit was returned. The laptop seems fine, but the CPU is acting strange... P-Core 3 and 7 are way hotter than the rest; bad paste job, fine... But the really odd thing is the XTU behavior. The CPU does not respond well to XTU at all. It doesn't crash, but even the most extreme UV has little to no affect on the temps.. It get's better. The XTU UV, with something like -100 P, -100 C and -100 E will actually down clock the cores by more than 500mhz compared to stock. Did I lose the lottery?
There are one important information u didn't show on all the reviews. The GPU memory junction max temp which concerns a lot of ppl while stress test n gaming. 😊
I have an Asus ROG STRIX G16 with an Intel i9-13980HX and RTX 4070.

I’m at a loss with my strix g18 4080 13980hx and I’m kinda having a panic attack over it.. I recently discovered that my computer thermal thottles pretty much no matter what is going on.

I tried this exact undervolt and it’s not unstable, in fact I get higher scores than you, but it always throttles. I’m at a loss on what to do. I have no experience with thermal throttling 😢
All cpus throttle for some reason or another. Otherwise they would fly off the hook and metldown into scrap. The key is that it delivers the promised performance consistently and doesn’t break. Sounds like it is performing perfectly within safety limits. Nothing to worry about. That said, if it is thermal temp bothers you, you can set a lower a lower target temp for less performance in armory crate in manual mode. Good luck!
@@GizmoSlipTechthank god, thanks for replying. Seeing your temps being pretty much the same on the g814jz vid made me feel a lot better too. Had a weird stutter for a while and panicked when I saw throttling lol.
At 20:48 I have the same undervolts applied but my CPU package temps are showing a 76 avg while idle while yours are showing 56. My package power is about the same as yours, so nothing odd going on there. My fans are set to Turbo in Asus Armoury Crate, so I'm not sure why my temps are so high.
How to force this Laptop to use iGPU for an external monitor? There is two Type-C ports, but both are running my external monitor on RTX GPU. Nvidia Control Panel is Optimus option.
Hi. Would this work with my Asus Rog Zephyrus M16? it has a 12th Gen i9 Cpu. I'm new to PC gaming stuff like this and noticed that my CPU runs hot with RE4 Remake.
Awesome video. Watched ur guide and helped me undervolting my Legion pro 7i 4090 and got great results. The issue I'm running in to is that XTU does not apply the settings (undervolt tuning)on Start up. I gotta go in and apply it every time I boot. Any advice?
Hello, I just bought this laptop today. Do I need to do the overclocking and undervolting procedures in this video? I will use the laptop mostly for games and blender-like applications. Does undervolting or overclocking cause any long-term harm?
With an Asus Strix 16 2023 13890hx and 4090RTX, Windows 11, after following the guide and applying BIOs + XTU I only get 25793. I wonder what's going wrong :(
Gizzmo thanx for this great stream. At 16.15 the popup message is the problem I got too. When you restart windows all your undervolt are gone. And if you go in xtu settings the Watchdog driver option is grey out. So I am using Throttlestop now. I will follow your guidance. Greetings.
Can anyone help? How to disable Fn key? to use all function keys (brightness, volume, keyboard light etc) without holding Fn ? BIOS and Armory Create does not have this setting

im really really torn. i love the form factors of both the blade 16 and the asus scar 16 with 4090s. Do I get the slightly less powerful but better build quality blade 16 with the 1440p non mini ed display (I dont think the 4k mini led option makes sense) or do i get the asus scar 16 with much worse build quality but better performance and a 1440p display that has mini led? I dont know
@@HumzaMohammed don't Asus tho have an option to turn the backlight into a single zone in the armoury crate software, making it behave like a standard IPS display. That way you can navigate windows and use the laptop for day to day things without that botchy backlighting, and then when you want to play a HDR game or watch a HDR movie you can flick it back on and enjoy the mini led display
Thank you very much for this beautiful video. So, should I do the setting you gave for undervolt with Bios in i7 13650hx? My product is Rog strix g16 i7 13650hx rtx 4070.
I applied the same settings with the exact same machine but it crashed. I tried with lower numbers and kept crashing. I guess my chip lottery went out baddddd. Good explanation though on how to do it.
Was anyone able to make XTU settings stick after reboots? There seems to be a problem with ASUS boards and laptops not allowing to enable the XTU setting
One of the better options if we exclude the ridiculous price, especially for 4090 + miniLED. But until they fix it fully, it's not worth it, I say. I'm waiting. Dell Legions seem to be worse this year, not much left to choose from, frankly. I haven't looked at XMG yet.
Gizmo ? do you think i can undervolt a Ryzen 9 7945HX on my future Scar 17 ? i see on review test, the temp core is i little bit high ? Thank's a lot for you answer !
@@GizmoSlipTech ok nice, by the way I have a strix g16 with the 13980hx but I can't find a way to turn off vbs and other options in bios or anywhere, also do you know if it has an undervolt protection setting option? Is this even possible without the scar
wooooow after 3 months with my scar 16 rtx4090 my GPU comes to 99% after I turn off core isolation.... why asus dont show this at release im very angry it was 3 hard months
@@tom123216 Nope.. Just a normal -80 undervolt.. I was running in Standard GPU, because of all the known issues with dGPU.. I ran the firmware update. It completed, and then rebooted. I never saw Windows again. I gave the laptop about 7 minute's before forcing a reboot. I finally gave up a few minutes ago after devoting more than three hours of my day trying to make this thing work. I formatted the drives, packed it up. I'm within my Amazon window, and will be scheduling a pickup. I'm officially back on the market. But where do I go from here? The Scar 16 is the best laptop currently available, even with the bugs.
Fk me my new laptop which costed me 3000 usd peak those voltages did my cpu degraded already and am i cooked ? Never undervolted is it too late now. I thought intel and asus 200000 engineers would figure out stable default settings. But no they are greedy clowns, who intentionally made them degrade over warranty
@@j_si97 would just undervolting prevent degradation ? or shall I do more than that. if I just make -80mv offset in bios would be enough please ? thank you :(
@grizius4123 I don't really know! I think the best way is to wait for intel to officially release a statement about mobile chipsets or, similar to the desktop ones, release a bios update to install the new microscope. If your chip has already been undervolted, check the voltage during the day (with daily usage load) and see if the max value exceeds 1.5 or not. If not, enjoy your hardware!
@@j_si97 it already exceed it by a huge margin just now it actually reached 1.608v no joke. and I did get the 0x0005c error exception very often. I no more trust intel anymore, cuz previously they stated that the mobile versions were not really affected, but here I am I get the same symptoms as their deskptop counterparts, I believe they just don't want to admit it, cuz laptop OEM brands and many pro consumer orgs would sue them to oblivion. I didn't undervolt it yet, and I had only bought this laptop since 4 july of this year, it is only about 1 months using default settings and it is already degrading af. GG

How to force this Laptop to use iGPU for an external monitor? There is two Type-C ports, but both are running my external monitor on RTX GPU. Nvidia Control Panel is Optimus option.
Hi. Would this work with my Asus Rog Zephyrus M16? it has a 12th Gen i9 Cpu. I'm new to PC gaming stuff like this and noticed that my CPU runs hot with RE4 Remake.
Awesome video. Watched ur guide and helped me undervolting my Legion pro 7i 4090 and got great results. The issue I'm running in to is that XTU does not apply the settings (undervolt tuning)on Start up. I gotta go in and apply it every time I boot. Any advice?
is it good for the laptop to be undervolted ? which is better for a longer laptop life ?
I was lead to believe you cant physically damage a machine by undervolt ? as your not adding voltage.
This laptop doing my head in fps goes from 140 ish down to 40fps for few seconds then back up to 140 in every game ,tried all armoury crate options
i averaged 96 in the same test with the same machine and the same undervolt and overclock, what am i doing wrong?
have you taken the heatsink off on the SCAR 16? I read that the liquid metal is leaking on most units.
Hello, I just bought this laptop today. Do I need to do the overclocking and undervolting procedures in this video? I will use the laptop mostly for games and blender-like applications. Does undervolting or overclocking cause any long-term harm?
- offset wont hurt your laptop only +
Is process lasso good? Please help I’m confused should i use it?
Do i need to keep the intelxtu application open in the background if i want to keep the undervolt? (Scar 18 rtx4080)
My ASUS Studiobook H7604JI has those sections greyed out. Is there another way I can enable undervolting?
simple guide. Don't run 4090 in this chassis and also simply setting multiplier is enough
Amazing stream Brandon!
I can already hear a bunch of SCARs crashing around the world 😅
haha, yeah.... but once they get tuned the inner beast is unleashed.
With an Asus Strix 16 2023 13890hx and 4090RTX, Windows 11, after following the guide and applying BIOs + XTU I only get 25793. I wonder what's going wrong :(
Do you happen to be doing the same this for the scar 17 just picked on up wanting to get the maximum out of it!
Core isolation is disabled… how do I activate it? It literally says the page is not available
Can someone share is undervolting profiles on the i7 12800hx processors on the msi vector gp66hx? Or similar laptops with the same processor?
ASUS Scar 16 (2023) I wonder xmp can be enabled on the bios? even if 4800mhz ? so i can use 4800mhz 34cl stiks?
Cries at i9 12900H :') x-x
TLDR Can the cpu of this laptop get up to 100 watt power draw using it without a stress on gpu ??
My understanding disabling virtualisation, it's a security risk.
Does it work so efficient also for Scar 18 4090 ?
The problem is that switching profiles in armory crate interferes with xtu undervolt
Under which armoury crate mode are you doing this undervolt?
There is new version of bios 308..can I do that undervolting or?
Gizzmo thanx for this great stream. At 16.15 the popup message is the problem I got too. When you restart windows all your undervolt are gone. And if you go in xtu settings the Watchdog driver option is grey out. So I am using Throttlestop now. I will follow your guidance. Greetings.
Can anyone help? How to disable Fn key? to use all function keys (brightness, volume, keyboard light etc) without holding Fn ? BIOS and Armory Create does not have this setting
I've found a solution. Delete armory create and install GHelper. Done. All functionality and more options in one window lightweight software comparing to bloated Armory Create + My Asus
I am unable to reach the max voltage it does not go beyong 90W and getting a score of 28k
How about scar 16 4080 version?
im really really torn. i love the form factors of both the blade 16 and the asus scar 16 with 4090s. Do I get the slightly less powerful but better build quality blade 16 with the 1440p non mini ed display (I dont think the 4k mini led option makes sense) or do i get the asus scar 16 with much worse build quality but better performance and a 1440p display that has mini led? I dont know
I've the scar 16... The miniled does not look very good for daily usage. There aren't many zones causing a ton of smearing/blooming.
@@HumzaMohammed don't Asus tho have an option to turn the backlight into a single zone in the armoury crate software, making it behave like a standard IPS display. That way you can navigate windows and use the laptop for day to day things without that botchy backlighting, and then when you want to play a HDR game or watch a HDR movie you can flick it back on and enjoy the mini led display
@@samhawkes6597 Yes 👍
@@HumzaMohammed are you happy with the machine, is the build quality good?
@@samhawkes6597 Yes very solid
Thank you very much for this beautiful video. So, should I do the setting you gave for undervolt with Bios in i7 13650hx? My product is Rog strix g16 i7 13650hx rtx 4070.
i wanna know i have same laptop what unverolts did u apply
@@sanaan0168 u undervolted it?
I applied the same settings with the exact same machine but it crashed. I tried with lower numbers and kept crashing. I guess my chip lottery went out baddddd. Good explanation though on how to do it.
Is there a wattage issue in 4070? Internet is flooded with various articles that it's maxes out at 105-110w instead full 140w.
I have not tested any 4070 140W gpus yet, so I don’t know
is it a same method for
strix non scar 13980hx with 4070 ?
Can we overclock the CPU with higher multiplier?
Has anyone solution of games stutters during using ultimate gpu mode in scar 16?
is -80mv save a asus strix g15 rtx 4060 i713650hx ?
Do I need to manually run Intel XTU every startup ?
The BIOS is actually limited to -30. They did not change the INFO text.
Maybe you are not on updated bios?
Does anybody have the time stamp for how to overclock your GPU?
Why does the bar graph say scar 18 vs GT 77? What did I miss?
The fans sound a lot louder than the Blade. Is that accurate?
How do I enebale the UNdervolt Protection in BIOS? I have Intel® Core™ i9-13980HX Prozessor strix g16 317 bios
Watch me enter the advanced bios to enable it. Just do the opposite
Was anyone able to make XTU settings stick after reboots? There seems to be a problem with ASUS boards and laptops not allowing to enable the XTU setting
yeah it's cringe
One of the better options if we exclude the ridiculous price, especially for 4090 + miniLED. But until they fix it fully, it's not worth it, I say. I'm waiting. Dell Legions seem to be worse this year, not much left to choose from, frankly. I haven't looked at XMG yet.
wot u mean with fix it fully?
Hey man were you doing these tests in manual armoury crate mode with all fans cranked up to maximum speed?
Yes, unless I specify otherwise
my scar 16 4090 runs hot even just watching this video. 70-85C. thinking of returning it lol
That’s very normal for laptops lol
I got the G634JZ with rtx4080, XTU doesn't work, saying overclocking is disable on this system
It works for me well but everytime reset after reboot
I have a stable undervolt at p core - -0.160 cache- - 0.130
@@vatsalgupta3610 yeah got mine sorted. number 1 in world for time spy extreme with the rtx4080 and same cpu
Asus Scar 16 VS Alienware M16? (4090)
What to choose and why?
alienware has temperature issues, bad software (alienware center or whatever) and if im not mistaken undervolting is locked
Gizmo ? do you think i can undervolt a Ryzen 9 7945HX on my future Scar 17 ? i see on review test, the temp core is i little bit high ?
Thank's a lot for you answer !
How do i undervolt GPU, Thanks!
do you know if this can somehow cause long term instability? or is it set and forget
As long as it is set within your laptop hardware’s realistic limits, it should be a set and forget type of thingb
@@GizmoSlipTech ok nice, by the way I have a strix g16 with the 13980hx but I can't find a way to turn off vbs and other options in bios or anywhere, also do you know if it has an undervolt protection setting option? Is this even possible without the scar
@@GizmoSlipTechwhat happens when you undervolt but an update comes out. Won't it cause errors?
I see XTU still blows, cant get UV to stay after reboots.
wooooow after 3 months with my scar 16 rtx4090 my GPU comes to 99% after I turn off core isolation.... why asus dont show this at release im very angry it was 3 hard months
How does your cinebench result? I'm on scar 16 rtx 4090 and can not get above 23.5K pts any advice?
What is the ambient temp in tests?
Check the live benchmarks with the temperature read outs.
RIP my Scar 16.. I can't get it out of the black screen after the 308 firmware update today.
Was this after undervolting?
@@tom123216 Nope.. Just a normal -80 undervolt.. I was running in Standard GPU, because of all the known issues with dGPU.. I ran the firmware update. It completed, and then rebooted. I never saw Windows again. I gave the laptop about 7 minute's before forcing a reboot. I finally gave up a few minutes ago after devoting more than three hours of my day trying to make this thing work. I formatted the drives, packed it up. I'm within my Amazon window, and will be scheduling a pickup. I'm officially back on the market. But where do I go from here? The Scar 16 is the best laptop currently available, even with the bugs.
@@anddo24 Plug out power and all peripherals and hold power button for 40s to power down - then reboot. You're welcome!
@@mitchchapman5859 Thanks. But, I did this for hours, yesterday.
Oh sh i updated after i read ur comment on my scar 18, its blacked out too ? How do i fix it @@
me that just install msi undervolt and change one setting XD
I just done the bios under vault and I only get 27471
Ops I had it on performance made lol. -70 and I got 31191
this CPU is busted! look at the voltage of the cores, it peaks at 1.53 which is a sign of intel 13th and 14th Gen failures.
Fk me my new laptop which costed me 3000 usd peak those voltages did my cpu degraded already and am i cooked ?
Never undervolted is it too late now.
I thought intel and asus 200000 engineers would figure out stable default settings. But no they are greedy clowns, who intentionally made them degrade over warranty
@grizius4123 Those voltage peaks are the signs of going toward degradation!
@@j_si97 would just undervolting prevent degradation ? or shall I do more than that. if I just make -80mv offset in bios would be enough please ? thank you :(
@grizius4123 I don't really know! I think the best way is to wait for intel to officially release a statement about mobile chipsets or, similar to the desktop ones, release a bios update to install the new microscope.
If your chip has already been undervolted, check the voltage during the day (with daily usage load) and see if the max value exceeds 1.5 or not. If not, enjoy your hardware!
@@j_si97 it already exceed it by a huge margin just now it actually reached 1.608v no joke. and I did get the 0x0005c error exception very often.
I no more trust intel anymore, cuz previously they stated that the mobile versions were not really affected, but here I am I get the same symptoms as their deskptop counterparts, I believe they just don't want to admit it, cuz laptop OEM brands and many pro consumer orgs would sue them to oblivion.
I didn't undervolt it yet, and I had only bought this laptop since 4 july of this year, it is only about 1 months using default settings and it is already degrading af. GG
i brought this laptop yesterday, best im getting is 33500 with this undervolt
I'm one of the few people that have this laptop. Congratulations to me.
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉. Also do you like it?
@@jaguareagle7026 yes. I love it
Getting it today by itself but 4080 one
Nice. How are the temps? Specially on cpu
