Question Locked BIOS (Voltage)?
Question Locked BIOS (Voltage)?
Hello, So I have a
Lenovo ThinkStation S20 Workstation
on which the BIOS is locked, so I overclocked its
Intel Xeon W3680 3.33Ghz CPU
with ThrottleStop, but I can only reach up to 28 and it would be stable, but going higher than that, even 29, will result in crashing. So I figured out that I need to increase the voltage of the CPU, but the BIOS is locked and that's why I overclocked the CPU with ThrottleStop.
The questions I have are:
1)
Is there is any way that I can mod my BIOS to add Voltage Adjusment settings?
2)
Is there is any program that can adjust voltage by bypassing the BIOS settings, like ThrottleStop?
Thanks, regards.
look for a tip to access the advanced setting or send a request within the bios mod.
1. It really isn't worth it unless you modify the bios chip, which could brick the board.
2. The voltages are fixed for a reason; these boards aren't built to handle unexpected situations and lack strong protections, making them more likely to fail.
