Power Limit Throttling

For those with power limit throttling... What is the general consensus on using Intel xtu or throttle stop to just max pl1 and pl2 or disable pl2 altogether? What's the go-to? I've found mixed results and wanted some better opinions from you guys on what the best practice is. Just go unlimited until limited by thermals or current? Or is there a recommended cap to apply and tweak the rest via undervolting?

A Triton 500. I was just curious what other people seem to have found with power limits, as after repasting I get 66C after 20 min of cinebench r20, running 80w pl2 and 60w pl1 on a 9750h CPU which defaulted to 70w pl2 and 45w pl1
