acer predator helios Does undervolting a laptop void the warranty and is undervolting a fatal risk?

nolen

can undevolting void the warranty? because my laptop acer predator helios neo 16 is overheating and I haven't replaced the thermal paste because acer service in my city is very bad, so I plan to lower the cpu temperature without replacing the thermal paste by undervolting. and also does undervolting a laptop have a risk?

[Edited the thread to add model name to the title]

Not usually. But you should not have to do anything if Predator Sense indicates CPU temp is less than 92ºC & GPU less than 86ºC under heavy loads.

The International "Standard" for normal room temperature is 22°C or 72°F, 32°C is too warm, turn down the thermostat a bit 😀

What happens to temperature when you raise laptop about an inch above a hard surface. Make sure you don't block any air vents on bottom or sides.
