Hi bros, as you all can see on my profile that i've got an Intel Core i5-2400 on a H67 chipset motherboard. Since i cannot (and not intending to) overclock my CPU, i would like to undervolt my CPU to increase its energy efficiency, lower down the max load temp and power usage.

Which programs should we use to stress test our CPU and what load temps should we be experiencing?

I have under volt ( to 1.10v loadline :disable) my cpu but the temp stay the same no different . Maybe u can use the green power utility. (set to performance) it use 1.04v when down loading , surfing net. I also disable the other 2 core when not intensive gaming.
