Stability question

[djdelarosa25]

After undervolting my laptop's CPU and Cache to -110 mV, I performed a system stability test (CPU, FPU, and Cache) in AIDA64 for 8 hours. It passed, so I ran 20 passes of Intel Burn Test at Maximum. While running, I opened AIDA64 to check the temps. A few minutes in, an error showed up (can't remember what) where it basically said something was wrong with AIDA64.exe. This was the same error I was getting in my AIDA64 stability tests when my undervolt was still unstable (< -110 mV). But curiously enough, my laptop completed IBT's 20 passes without any problems. Do you guys know why that error showed up?

Just add 10-20mV and call it a day

Thanks. Which would you recommend, ThrottleStop or XTU?

why undervolt ?, warrant aint covering Human Error

Neither - I don't like messing with laptop power/voltage setting as you could cause serious damage if you overload the circuitry.

Undervolting doesn't void the warranty and is harmless to the CPU. Besides, the pros far outweigh the (unexistent) cons.

Actually - it's not 100% harmless - if you go too far the lappy won't boot at all. Warranty won't cover it IIRC.
