I have an old gaming laptop with Ryzen 5 2500U, which comes with Vega 8 iGPU (and now dead RX560 dGPU). Now, in theory, the GPU clock can be boosted up to 1100MHz. However, due to the maximum power limit being 25 watts, it often works at 600-800 MHz range, which causes framerate drops and sub-par performance.
I have installed UXTU, Set mode on ultra, then turned on adaptive mode with this additions:
Maximum TDP: 35w
Dynamic GPU Clock Max: 1100MHz
Dynamic GPU Clock Min: 1050MHz
CPU Temps (peak values often reached during loading or short bursts):

35w (GPU Clock still not stable as dGPUs, randomly dropping to 900MHz time to time)

Will this modification shorten the lifespan of the CPU? Or will it have an ill effect? i didn't touch the voltages, by the way.
