ThrottleStop Undervolt Profiles Pre-Made

Red-Sand

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)

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?

Thanks Red-Sand, this is awesomeness! .. easy to use    👍

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.

For sure, I will report this thread to other Red-Sand users

Thanks Red-Sand It worked very well in games

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

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

The link for setting Throttlestop to automatically start at system boot is broken. Can you fix it please?

Wow ! great improvement on 8750H no thermo throttle in  Arma3 never hit above 80 deg. Was throttleing with temp above 98 deg.before.THX engr146

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.

@hadarz8 The link is blocked I'm not sure why but here is a link to the guide until I can snag a Acer rep to help me edit my post. http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/the-throttlestop-guide.531329/page-453

Not sure why I get this error when when I try to launch the application.

You need to update your Microsoft C++ and Microsoft .NET

Thanks than fixed it

Because Throttlestop has far more features available and is much smaller in size so it takes less resources in the background.

Throttlestop allows adjustment of Speed Shift EPP (Energy Performance Profile) and also allows for CPU capping, C State tweaks, auto profile switching when on AC or battery.

It has a ton more features and is far more efficient.

Excellent work @Red-Sand, thanks for posting this useful material
