Hi guys so I had undervolted both my CPU and GPU. On top of that, I was gaming on balanced power options I'm shock to see how cool my CPU temps are average around 70 degrees Celsius constantly playing monster hunter world. I did not expect this tho and I would assume that gaming on balanced mode would reduce performance but I had not experience any fps drop. My nvidia cp is set to high performance tho.
 
Balanced mode just allows the system to reduce power when not in use or during low loads. If the system requires more power/performance, it will deliver it. From an efficiency standpoint, that is good, because if the system is idle, you do not want your system running at high speeds for no reason (producing unnecessary heat).

High performance will keep your system at high speeds most of the time and may help slightly, but keeping your system on balanced mode is definitely fine for gaming.
