Undervolting
Maybe we can add undervolting feature? (it saves a lot of battery and reduces heat, but the user has to tune it themselves because it affects stability)
actually nope, undervolting is decreasing the voltage of a CPU to decrease the TDP, so it's the opposite of overclocking and doesn't damage the CPU. The only negative effect is bad stability, but that can only happen if you undervolt the CPU too much
What about if you undervolt to a point that your cpu cannot function anymore and your pc won't boot.?

That would be bad, let's never change the voltage, wait, but maybe acs would be a cool Linux overclocking util

The BIOS resets the voltage every time it encounters instability, so that wouldn't happeb
Do any other overclocking programs that exist?
Yea but Intel processors cannot be overclocked, unless its an i9, X series, or K series AMD Desktop processors can be overclocked, but not mobile
yee although some laptops use desktop processors (old thinkpads, alienware, some other gaming laptops)
