Unable to set different core and cache offset #186

In the Troubleshooting part it says different core and cache offset has no effect. Why is that? I was able to set different offsets with ThrottleStop on Windows. Usually core can be undervolted more compared to cache.

I have exact same problem and question. I'm dual booting Windows and Arch Linux, and on Windows, with Throttlestop I can set different values for cache and core, and they work (I'm sure they work, because when I set extreme value, windows crashes). On Linux it seems to be true that it chooses the lower value. And it's the same behavior between different undervolting apps. Why is that? @georgewhewell do you have any idea why that happens?
