Because I convinced myself that I can somehow compromise on PSU but not GPU. Thinking on it again I guess that kind of mindset is flawed. Thanks for the response!

Is it okay? I currently use a 250w power supply that came bundled with the case and I'd like to replace it with one that's bigger (at least 400w). I found some stores online that sell used power supplies for cheap (around 20 dollars in my currency). Many are 80 plus certified, some just white...

No, I only touched the offset voltage slider on core and cache. I didn't change anything else.

Because I didn't think those were relevant lol. My bad, here's the whole FIVR window. So far it's been good and I notice no crashes or freezing.

Here's the screenshot, I only did 49.8 (for both core and cache) because I didn't want to do too much and risk any unstability. I already noticed some decent changes in temps (dropped up to 5 degrees in most games I play now) so I'm fairly satisfied already.

I'm planning to use Throttlestop and every tutorial video I've seen doesn't touch the VCCIN part and only changes the 'offset voltage' bit. This video is included within the folder in which the Throttlestop came. I'm now not as hesitant but yeah I'd like to wait for more responses.

Intel stock cooler. No I haven't, but I do plan to do that next week

I recently got a PC with an i5 4590 and when gaming it would reach 70+ degrees C, sometimes even reaching 80. HWINFO doesn't say that it's thermal throttling and I don't really see any decrease in performance, however it still worries me as this chip is old and I don't want to stress it too...
