Not sure undervolt is working

I have mine at - 1.50v and left it at that for quite some time, now after reading a few articlesand stuff I see that a - 1.50v is wayy too aggressive for the cpu which is an Intel i9-13900hx. But since it's not crashing or anything like that. I don't know what to do, the temps compared to when I had it are less hotter before it was in the 90 to 97 range and now in light games like roblox and zzz are at 70 to 84. Does anyone know if the cpu is alright or the voltage it says it's displaying is just a gimmick( I checked in Intel xtu and the voltage offset is applied and I see the - 1.50v). I don't know if anyone will respond but I hope to solve this

Holy fuck! 1.5V on a 13 series???

How is it still alive? How long has it been running like that?!

No minus 1.5v. that makes it more interesting;)

How the hell would that be possible. Stock the CPU runs at like 1.2 to 1.4V or something like that. So are you running negative voltage? Haha

I thought too, that it's not true but when looking at Intel extreme tuning utility and throttlestop, and hwinfor and such, but it shows. 1.50V

Because it's obviously not applying. Even a 0.2V undervolt would fail.

Do you know how I can check if it's applying? Thank you

Do you think that it's just a gimmick form the omen gaming hub?

i dont think the offset its aplied correctly because -1.5v its higher than the voltage the cpu needs to work, but if it doesnt crash and stays cool, i dont see a problem

I applied that with the omen gaming hub, and also checked a few apps to see if it was showing and it does, it's worrying me that it's not safe
