Undervolting mid 2015 15" MacBook Pro

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi,[br]
-[br]
I have mid 2015 15" Macbook Pro with i7 4870hq CPU.[br]
-[br]
I installed Volta app to undervolt and for measurement istats and intel power gadget.[br]
-[br]
With trial and error i found that i can go for up to -85mV. Can go for -95mV but it doesn't differ in terms of performance.[br]
-[br]
Tested the performance with cinebench r20, i get around %8-10 performance increase but i mostly get around 95-98 degrees temperature on CPU. It gets hot so quickly. I couldn't make it cooler much with undervolting. I think CPU idle degree is a little bit lower, like 55 to 47 degrees.[br]
-[br]
I installed mac fans control and increased the fans to their max rpms but didn't change anything.[br]
-[br]
Is there anything i can do more? What would be your recommendations?[br]
-[br]
I used cinebench as benchmark tool, what can i use in addition? I used geekbench but i get a little bit lower results like 5-20 points.[br]
-[br]
Thanks
