ThrottleStop Undervolt Profiles Pre-Made

http: ThrottleStop Pre-Configured Setups


I've compiled a bundle of ThrottleStop configurations for various CPU types.
Each of these downloads are specific to the CPU listed and come pre-setup to optimum undervolt, Speed Shift EPP, power limits and other various tweaks.

Each setup has energy governance for while plugged in and on battery:
Profiles will automatically switch between AC and battery profiles when you plug or unplug your laptop.

Since the Nvidia GPU switches to "Powermizer" mode while on battery, the battery CPU profiles were adjusted accordingly to maintain proper performance and battery efficiency.

Note: Nothing negative can happen to your system from using these configurations. 
At worst case - Your laptop will reboot but no damage would have been done (I have yet to see this happen from my files)
These configurations can be used even if your Predator Sense has undervolting built in.


These profiles may cause certain games to lose a few FPS but drop temperatures variably between 5-20 C.

**DISCLAIMER**
While I have tested these profiles extensively, that doesn't guarantee that your system will accept it without issue.
Variables such as tweaks you've imposed yourself could cause conflicts with unknown effects.
Please proceed with caution.

How to use these files:
1. Simply download (& extract if required) the folder signatured with the same CPU you have in your system and place it in "My Documents"
2. Open the folder and run the "Throttlestop.exe" and you're done. (Yes really it's that simple)

i5-7300HQ
i7-7700HQ
i5-8300Hi7-8750Hi5-9300H (Coming Soon)
In progress (I do not have a system with this CPU at this time to test)
i7-9750H

How to set Throttlestop to auto startup at boot

Once you have tested thoroughly the Throttlestop configurations you've downloaded (And by thoroughly I mean HOURS of gaming or high productivity use) you can set Throttlestop to automatically start at system boot up by following this guide to create a task schedule. I have yet to see any issues arise from using my setups.

    Excellent content @Red-Sand. In which version of windows 10 did you perform the tests? 1803, 1809 or 1903?

    Do these changes also work with predator sense in version 3130?

    This will work regardless of Windows version but I've been using/testing various Throttlestop configs since 1703 on Predator laptops.

    It will work with any Predator Sense version on any model as this doesn't have any direct correlation to P-Sense. I only mentioned it because the newer laptops have undervolt built into P-Sense using XTU profiles and there are some who might think the two conflict.

    Thanks - Hope it helps someone be less intimidated by undervolting and gain the benefit without having to google for hours.

    Just one question....why Throttlestop instead of XTU?

    XTU sometimes messes up the settings, whereas Throttlestop doesn't.

    Wait so does Throttlestop or Intel XTU play nice with Predator Sense included -1.250 undervolt?

    Also please update this with improvement in the future will love you forever thanks.

    XTU has a service called "XTUService" that runs as a Service in windows where Predator Sense launches XTU profiles 

    So the default -0.125 is actually a XTU undervolt.

    My Throttlestop values can be used without any confliction to Predator Senses Undervolt.
