My laptop uses cpu T6500 2.1Ghz, 2MB. The OS is windows 7 64bit.
My default Vcore levels are 0.925 for lowest multiplier 6.0, and 1.15 for highest multiplier.
I have managed to undervolt the highest Vcore (1.15) to 0.925 (as much as the lowest multiplier's) using RMClock and now my system is stable (orthos for 2 hours).
But now I want to undervolt the lowest multiplier Vcore to lower than 0.925, because you can see that now my lowest Vcore is similar to the highest.
Is anyone able to lower the lowest multiplier's voltage with RMClock?
I have discovered the way to customize the lowest Vcore, but I cannot change it.

My CPU isn't recognized by RMClock since it based on the 45nm technology CPU. Is that the reason for the problem?

You would probably only have one option.

I understand, probably not worth the effort.
But there is another thread you may be interested in:

So from what I can tell, you should run at the highest multi that has the lowest VID (in your case run full speed all the time). -

That is right.

I have a T6400 undervolted to 0.925 across all multipliers also. I tried locking the processor on 10x all the time but I found that it generates more heat than at 6x. I know the voltages are the same for both multipliers (which means power consumption should be the same between 6x and 10x) but somehow I have a feeling more heat means it's using more energy and also using more energy to cool the CPU with fans. At the end of the day, I just let the system throttle between 6x and 10x and the core vid always stays on 0.925.
I do wish I can go lower than 0.925v with just software undervolting but I guess any lower is venturing into CULV territory. Anyone know the lowest vcore for the P8xxx chips? I'm thinking about upgrading only if they can go down to 0.850v with undervolting... -
Higher clock speed = higher power consumption... doubt the P series will do much better than what you've already done.

Will go for a CULV in the future. -
I think that RMClock doesn't wokr wel with the 45nm technology of CPU.
I saw a guy which has a T7500 was able to lower even the frequency and his CPU now works at 600MHZ at the Vcore of 0.85. -

It's not a problem with RMclock.
It is what is programed into your BIOS.
Because no matter what tool you use (crystalcpuid or whatever) you still can't go lower.
I have tried both merom (65nm) and penryn (45nm) cpus, you are right, the penryn CPUs wont go lower than 0.9500 without a pin mod.
But the 45nm cpus do still run cooler (a lot cooler).
How to undervolt the lowet multiplier?
