I've only recently become enthusiastic about PC building, but before I set out on my own, I wanted to look around and read something first.
And overclocking is often talked about more power from his GPU, CPU, RAM and what I know rauszukitzeln in which one increases the clock frequency, but there's a risk that the devices overheat. I understand.
But I did not really understand Undervoltong. Apparently it's often done on high end laptops to get more power, but how exactly is mor still alien.
Can one do it at the same time?
Can I do it on a 7-year-old laptop to get 5-10 FPS more out of CS: Go / Dota / WoW and whatsoever?
Undervolting is the lowering of the applied voltage, which (mostly) leads to lower power consumption and less heat development
Is not it the opposite of overclocking? With one I increase the clocking and thus the temperature, with the other the temperature decreases and both leads to a performance increase?
Tension is not equal but with the other hats you should be right not only too far undervolten and if then only if it's worth it. Because a lot can go wrong
For example, Vegas is good OC + UV I Habs but still not made because I simply just do not know enough
When overlocking, the clock is primarily increased, if necessary, the voltage if willing, service to the cpu more power than the factory guaranteed to elicit.
When undervolting is primarily about lowering the voltage without reducing the clock, the goal is to reduce power consumption and heat generation.
One could also define the terms overvolting or underclocking but makes practically no sense.
That way yes. But you do not always have to try to achieve more and more. That also costs electrically disproportionately much power. And that has to be coolable, too. Most of the work is done in a quasi-stable voltage range, as each chiplet is a tiny bit different. In order to get all in a stable medium range and under circumstances the most possible chips so give and join in bring to run. Otherwise, one would have to determine the optimum voltage for each device in relation to the desired cycle… Disproportionately high expenditure. And undervolting is now your option to see how deep you can go without jeopardizing the stability and defined levels in the logic circuit. Essentially; less consumption, same performance. It's cool too ^^
It is theoretically possible to have overclocking and undervolting, but they "neutralize" themselves.
When overclocking you have to raise the voltage from a certain point.
When undervolting the voltage is lowered, the part should still remain stable.
It would be theoretically possible to do some undervolting and some overclocking, but it is not meaningful.
Due to the limited cooling options, laptops often run very hot and slow themselves down so as not to exceed the temperature limits. That's why you lower the voltage, because it lowers the temperature and the laptop does not have to step down.
Vega 56 is weird
