Question Overclock locked Raptor Lake non K still feasible with BFB feature in 2023?
Question Overclock locked Raptor Lake non K still feasible with BFB feature in 2023?
it was just a temporary fix from earlier to boost performance on a locked, budget CPU. another architecture might have prevented this function. rocket lake includes it, the H110a pro does, while raptor lake doesn't as far as I know. sad to see, overclocking on locked non-K chips is blocked by default. intel simply ignores it.
my mobo is shown here, it's a good concept but unexpectedly descends to the bottom of the tank
Intel Comet Lake Non-K CPUs allow overclocking on ASUS, ASRock, MSI H470, B460 & H410 boards
Intel's partners such as ASUS, ASRock and MSI have made it possible to overclock non-K CPUs by increasing the power limit on B460, H470 boards

This is just a simulation, considering the timing clock overclocking opportunities when it offers significant advantages (Coffee Lake).
Some discussions on the forum mention that Intel released a controversial update disabling BCLK on non-K models.

bclk overclock was common in the past, but now with direct pcie lanes from CPU to m2, you can also overclock your m2 drive. However, m2 doesn't tolerate any overclocking, so you must use an external clock generator (eCLK), which cheaper boards typically lack.
in certain situations the processor overheats, so I just require undervolting without overclocking. It also has a BCLK lower than 100mhz, such as 99.98. I don’t tolerate this kind of inconsistency; if it exceeds 100mhz by default, regardless of how much I’d rather avoid it. People generally prefer something better than a compromise, for example choosing 5001mhz over 4999mhz. However, Intel has forced motherboard makers to remove BCLK settings from non-K CPUs, and I can’t set BCLK above 100. At the same time, some low-end CPUs manage to run at very low temperatures under heavy load, up to 60°C, which shows the available headroom isn’t being utilized properly and overclocking becomes necessary to boost performance. Pentium and Celeron CPUs are inherently weak and must be overclocked.
