M6500: Undervolting

Is any m6500 owner undervolting their machine with RMClock? If so, I'd like to know what your min voltage setting is. Thanks

 

I don't believe you can undervolt any Core i series with RMClock.

 

May just be that, I haven't used RM Clock in over 3 years. I've even tried to undervolt a desktop CPU in the Asus C90s, but could never get a net gain using it. I'd be curious to find out why.

 

Intel changed the Core i design which put an end to under volting for these new CPUs. Maybe that's why they run so hot. You used to be able to make a significant difference to full load core temperature when you adjusted Core 2 CPUs with lower voltage but that option no longer exists in any of the Core i CPUs.

 

thanks....I don't have a heat problem, but undervolting used to be a nice win win thing to do.

 

Maybe GPU undervolt? Or ram? Afaik the i7 will actually underclock and shutdown cores making undervolting the CPU a moot point.

 

Even the C2D's undervolted and underclocked automatically, the point of RMClock was to further reduce it since each CPU is unique and can usually run at lower voltages than stock.

 

Using RMClock to reduce the maximum CPU voltage was a good option to have for Core 2 based CPUs but there is no known option like that in the Core i CPUs. Intel has publicly stated that it is no longer possible.
