    @sri369 well i just undervolted by -0.80v on cpu and cache and -0.60v intel gpu played overwatch for about 10-15 minutes and temps spiked up to 93 with cpu undervolt and i dont know if the gpu undervolt is working

    TS will only undervolt the cpu and intel gpu not the GTX this one can only be undervolted via msi AB curve and i already stated you need to repaste theres no other solution for your problem


    https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/11532543

    UserBenchmarks: Game 43%, Desk 61%, Work 40%
    CPU: Intel Core i5-7300HQ - 63.5%
    GPU: Nvidia GTX 1050-Ti (Mobile) - 41.9%
    SSD: WDC WDS200T2B0B-00YS70 2TB - 71.4%
    HDD: WD WD10SPZX-00HKTT0 1TB - 93.7%
    RAM: Kingston HyperX DDR4 2666 C15 2x16GB - 76.8%
    MBD: Acer Predator G3-572

    If my answer fixed you issue please accept it for any other users who search for it would find it quickly thanks :)

    You need to connected to power supply to play any heavy games. What is your charger rating - 135 or 180 watts? For 180 watts the battery discharge per hour of gaming would be about a percent or so. For 135 watts it would be significantly higher.

    It will also depend on how many usb devices you have draining power from the usb ports the more you have the more the battery will drain

    @sri369 this is my throttlestop setup and my msi afterburner curve i have the "Max Q" straight line curve but when i use that i get errors like Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered. which i dont know if thats because i have to update nvidia or because of the curve but those are my settings for my power i have it on balanced with min proc state 0% and max proc state 100%

    Problem is your curve! Reset it to default, and put it on lines of how mine is. Your system is failing due to insufficient voltage. Do not hit the peak (1911 on 1060 card) at any value under 975.

    Follow the curve in the screenshot i posted. If you are on mobile, switch to desktop view or get onto a non mobile device to view the screenshot I attached to my earlier post.

    i see the screenshot so the values dont have to be exact like yours on mine? they just have to be around there

    Did you create and update the power plan?
    Windows 10 1809 update on it always pushes CPU to turbo even on low loads.

    and when i meant numbers i meant as can you tell me the numbers of each point so i can copy the graph exact? i can see the point just fine. Just like make a video of you hovering over each of the curve points so i can copy them.

    I already provied you all the information I could, with screenshots. Video is more time and effort consuming and I do not have time for all that, sorry.
