How to Improve an Intel MacBook's Battery Life by Changing CPU Wattage
I own a 2015 MacBook Pro 13", and do not plan on purchasing a new MacBook soon. I recently searched for how to improve battery life, and accidentally stumbled upon undervolting when I forgot to add "mac" at the end of my search. My curiosity was piqued, and I looked into it more. It turns out that there is one tool for undervolting a Mac, called voltageshift. It can be found on Github here, and is written by siscreative, abn5x, ridvan-cln, Artoria2e5, and Charlyo.

Additionally, I did undervolt CPU & GPU to reduce the heat a bit and save some battery with VoltageShift (it’s still not good though, I get like 4 hours of SoT total.)

z97 pro ac wifi + i7 4790K manual vcore setup hangs clover 5119 boot process (OTOH, the same settings make windows 8 boot and work perfectly), any hint to address that Clover boot hang?
Yeah, I gotcha what you're trying to do though the official method for the said action was using the VoltageShift (https://github.com/sicreative/VoltageShift). So with it you'd build a launch daemon to start things up with the appropriate parameters. But just brainstorming upon your particular set of issues, I think you should maybe look into rebuilding your PM settings in the exact same way you generate the pmset upon building up the new machine. Which means deleting the two pmset files and letting macOS generate the new ones upon the restart, which, in whole honesty, might be the culprit seeing how the CPU has changed in the meantime and it could be the culprit. Obviously this is just an in-theory post but nevertheless something I'd look into.

[Big Sur] How to restore Performance on an Intel MacBook with tripped sensors/BD_PROCHOT.
This solution, just like in Windows, is unfortunately not permanent and will have to be applied on boot, and every time you wake the computer from sleep or hibernation. We will be using the latest release of VoltageShift, an Open-source software that allows us to modify MSR and undervolt. Do note that this only works on Haswell machines and newer. There's a chance you could use CPUTune or other software that is able to write to MSR values directly, but this guide exclusively focuses on VoltageShift.

Mac Studio M2 and 8k screen
Just wanted to put in a plug for the MonitorControl app. I just installed it, and it enables brightness control for the QN700B from Apple's keyboard. So great not to have to pull up any Samsung menus to adjust it.
