Undervolting my Acer Predator Helios 300 both CPU and GPU.

I have folllowed it too.And I haven't repasted mine so temps may get high a little bit.
So this is optimal,right?Any more I can do?
And why when undervolting the GPU,the first value of the stock performance/undervolt in your guide is 1455 but the program always sets it to 1506?

Each GPU is slightly different and the first value differs between machines. It's normal. There is a faint ghost line in the background of the curve editor that when you adjust a value and hit apply if it jumps back to another value that you had not set... you will see that ghost line shift. If you keep manually moving to the value you want that ghost line will move further and further until that value sticks.

I would recommend doing the tweaks I applied in the windows optimization guide but checking in task schedules and services for programs YOU installed yourself. Just following the video and doing nothing else doesnt maximize optimization. Check for automatically updating software, programs that "monitor" like iobit software or ccleaner, ipod services (bonjour), torrent software, remove chrome or disable its 827364682 updating services etc. Even a program like Razer Cortex that's supposed to help improve performance... only degrades it. You want as little running as possible.
Also disabling things like windows updates or Microsoft office updates will increase performance and remove "dips" in games because those programs check periodically.

To be honest I like geforce experience a lot.
You can use its "optimize" feature to get the best possible graphics that can maintain your v sync fps rate.

If you use "whisper mode" then after its activated hit "optimize" you will notice graphics will be slightly lower then without whisper mode. This is because whisper mode (like its name) attempts to make your fans work as little as possible to maintain a quiet atmosphere all while maintaining decent graphic performance.

Additionally whisper mode caps your in game fps (different fps caps for each game) based on user feedback of what a game is playable at while having a lower fps. This also assists in lowering fan noise for the "whisper" experience.

Also in geforce experience is "battery optimization" mode. Which of enabled and then "optimize" is used, will lower graphic settings to help give the longest battery life possible. There is also a FPS slider on the battery optimization option to choose what you want to try to get.

I'd also like to note when whisper mode is enabled the most consistent fps auto applied is 40 fps.. which is fine for RPGs etc but for shooters not so much... you can go into your nvidia control panel with whisper mode activated and find the game you want the fps to increase on in the programs list and at the bottom change manually was fps is to be set as a cap.
