Optimizing Voltage Curves on Kioxia EXCERIA PLUS G4

Marathon stress runs show multi-core rendering pushing VRM temps dangerously close to thermal tripwires, as aggressive boost clocks fry the power delivery. Basic airflow mods barely help until manually dropping voltage offsets and capping P-core limits actually starves the heat source. I ran 3DMark and saw the scores jump from a volatile 12000 - 13500 range to a steady 14200 - 14500 range. Benchmark telemetry confirms multi-core scores flatten out beautifully, with coolers no longer panic throttling. Is undervolting really the magic bullet? Mostly, but it can be glitchy. Single-core peaks take a tiny hit, but sustained framerate delivery gets noticeably smoother. Hitting that sweet spot is the real key, though you might face a random reboot if you push it too low.
