I’ve had multiple systems that crash or corrupt data when underclocked, so running at 90% might not be what you want. You can always play with the CPU governor

You can always play with the CPU governor / disable high power states. That should be well-tested.
- anonymars 1y agoIt sounds like you are conflating undervolting for underclocking. Undervolting runs it out of spec, while underclocking simply runs it slower
- microtonal 1y agoSetting a P-State max percentage is completely reliable/stable, it will clock lower on average to hit the lower performance target. It’s kinda similar to setting a powersave governor, but more granular. I think you are confusing with undervolting.
- hedora 1y agoNo. For giggles, set your DRAM frequency (MT/sec) to something crazy low, then try using the machine for a week.
