The CPU temperature rises to 80-85 degrees during heavy use on my Zenbook pro UX550VD. Using Intel XTU I can turn off turbo boost and adjust the voltage, but the clock multipliers are not visible. There’s no information about clock frequency in the BIOS either. Could you let me know if it’s possible to modify the clock speed and how?

I don't understand how to check if you can't access the settings. But if you're comfortable disassembling computers, I'd remove the CPU cooler, clean it, and then reapply thermal paste.
