hmmm, interesting. I don't do that but maybe I should.

The laptop runs cooler without the charge cable plugged in, but Elite will drain a full charge in no time. So yeah, maybe I need to tell things to chill the f out with the power plugged in...

Sorry, I meant to say undervolt!

Are you sure you don't mean unbolt? :D

I have played with overclocking in the past, but not undervolting or on a laptop, I'm a bit scared.

Actually, it is much safer than overclocking or overvolting. Basically, you are feeding the CPU as little power as possible to remain stable. If it fails, then it resets but you can't damage it, unlike overclocking.

'undervolting' the gpu, is basically getting it to run faster than the voltage provided would be guaranteed stable for.
