Is 'too much' undervolt bad?

Jolev

Hi, this is the first time i undervolt a gpu, i have a evga 2060 ko ultra, it was hitting 80° while gaming so i did a research and finished doing an undervolt, i was on the 1.05v or so, now it is at .925v at 1920mhz i can push it to .870v before it starts displaying weird artifacts but i just left it at .925 because i hit my target temps with that, around 70-72°. does my curve looks "ok"?

 

also evga website says this model is 1755-1800mhz when boosting, gpuz says default clock boost is 1755 but everytime i 'reset' settings on msi afterburner, the voltage curve goes up to 1920mhz, am i doing something wrong like unintended overclock? also gpu clock on gpuz is a bit lower now than the default clock, but im getting the same 1920mhz in game idk if im getting a hit on performance or not

Undervolting is totally safe, it's adding voltage that can cause damage

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Undervolting is safe just sometimes you hit instability but it's not a risk like if you overvolt and hit instability.
