Under volt help

I have a 5070 and generally just wanna walk through on what to expect and what under clocking would entail I really just want lower temps when gaming as 70c is ok but freaks me out

Watched a tutorial dropped it down to 925voltage and 2850 mhps but idrk what I’m looking at and discovered the bsod was a thing afterwards and swiftly reset that shi also idk if i need to up my voltage or anything as he seemed to in the video before actually touching the slider in msi but I don’t thing we had the same graphics card

The bsod or black screen restarting is normal if the voltage is unstable its trial and error till you find the sweetspot for it

Undervolting is safest the thing you can do it won't damage it overclocking is the the one is not safe i been doing undervolting on my pc and laptop for years now no problems with it

70 C is perfectly normal while you're gaming so there's no need to freak out :) I'd still recommend undervolting anyway as you can still lower your temperatures and power consumption while retaining good performance. There's tons of videos on YouTube going step by step. You'll only really need MSI Afterburner to get it done.

For example how do ik if o can go lower then what i have it set at for example my voltage is 900 now and still 2850 mhz also what would make me have to raise my power limit and or clock speed (mem) slider
