srs2236 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 First try Intel XTU and ThrottleStop for these things. However, everything from overclocking to undervolting should be available in Intel XTU. The only thing you might need ThrottleStop for is C-States. Good luck! Edit: Are you sure it is locked? Because it is officially supported by Intel XTU. If Intel XTU indeed is not working then it just disabled in BIOS. If that is the case, try ThrottleStop for undervolting. It might still work.

Thankyou for replying I did try throttlestop but the cpu settings were grayed out which made me think medabox/clevo locked it in bios but could be wrong how will I know if it was? I could try Intel XTU is that pretty straight forward like ThrottleStop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is disabled I believe it will stop half-way through the installation. And for ThrottleStop to work with undervolting you have to go to FIVR and check the box that says Unlock Adjustable Voltage. I know I missed it first time I tried using ThrottleStop. Good luck!

Ok in throttlestop it's completely locked even the unlock adjustable voltage is grayed out Intel XTU everything was locked also. The i9 13th Gen should be unlocked But perhaps metabox/clevo has locked it. Another thing in the bios it's locked can't even get into boot option menu. Do I need to unlock mod my bios now?
