Undervolting is great, but power limiting is just as important in modern GPUs
Modern GPUs are running hot, and that's inevitable. They are pushing higher frames than ever, and that's not possible without generating a ton of heat. Now, while advancements in process nodes and architecture mean that they aren't running too hot compared to older generations, there's still a problem, especially with CPUs, SSDs, and RAM picking up as well. With all that heat combined, undervolting emerged as a widely used tweak for anyone running mid- to high-end GPUs from the last few generations. But another tweak that should be just as relevant is power limiting.
