If I Disable the IGPU will it help the Temperatures lower at all? It may sound like a stupid question but I'm trying to lower the temperatures as much as I can. My temperatures are quite low but I'm just trying to keep them as low as I can.
 
Solution
Since you already use a dedicated graphics card, the iGPU is most likely already disabled (auto disabled by the bios).
It would only be enabled if you have the multi monitor option enabled in the bios and have a monitor connected to it.

As for lowering the voltage, i would first manually set the voltage to stock (if it's still currently on auto) and test that first, i would then start dropping the voltage 0.01v at a time.

Lowering the voltage won't hurt my CPU? Currently my Voltage is 1,136.

No wont hurt it, it may cause instability, you would have to test and see how low it can go, every chip is different.

Well my CPU is stable and I'd like to keep it stable. I have a different PC so I might test that on it.

I might try it later but you said small increments, how small? ( Sorry about the noob questions )

I just checked the BIOS and it was disabled. ( That's my fault , sorry )
I guess I'll try what you said.
Thanks.
