Current issue isn't affecting the undervolt setting.

I'm using an i5 10300H and updating it every time I attempt to lower the voltage. The throttle stop and hwmonitor don't show any changes. I haven't adjusted the BIOS settings or tried Intel XTU yet, but setting CPU Core and Cache to the same voltage didn't help either.

Examine the top of the FIVR window. The BIOS is preventing CPU voltage control. When this lock setting is active, the turbo ratio limits are also restricted, making it impossible to adjust your CPU speed. The newest release offers better compatibility with 10th Gen CPUs, but only a customized BIOS can restore full control.

You can install a modified BIOS on your laptop, but it depends on the model and manufacturer. It may change system behavior or compatibility, so research thoroughly before proceeding.

You're asking about specific laptop models and their CPU voltage control options. Many MSI laptops support enabling this feature in the BIOS on 10th generation systems. Dell users have found ways to adjust UEFI settings to access it.
