Hey guys, after playing around with RMclock, i have remained quite stable at 1.15V until i underclocked further to 1.1V
Now, i have noted that one of the disadvantages of underclocking may be BSOd.
I never got this..however, i have noticed that my fps fluctuates a bit more than when i had higher volts. Ofcourse, my temperatures dropped by 2~3C more for my GPU and CPU but my fps just jumps alot..
Is this a problem with the undervolting? or is there something wrong..because when i reverted back to 1.15V, it seemed fine...

Why don't you try reverting back to your original settings to find out?
-
btw its undervolting not underclocking
if your fps is fluctuating then it might be your gpu, but the cpu could also play its part
Monitor your cpu and gpu clockspeeds see if they fluctuate. -
I have found that with my notebook, if I install RMclock I get a drop in frame rates, I don't have to undervolt anything. I've tried undervolting to see if it makes it worse, but no, just the same. I get about 5-10fps drop just by installing it. Any settings I play with make no difference. I've read all the guides (and followed them) that are posted on here.
I've monitored my clocks and it makes no changes to these. -
in Some games you may notice a drop in FPS, so id suggest using maximal performance while gaming

I had no issues.
Make sure you guys test with ORTHOS for about an hour... -
I tested with orthos for nearly half a day (I forgot it was running in the background whilst I was working) at the voltage I had settled at. So it had plenty of time to go wrong and heat up my processor. It gave me a good reduction in CPU temp, but made no difference at all to the GPU temp. Must be my crappy tiny heatsink thats fitted to the GPU in my notebook.
undervolting affecting fps?!
