@unclewebb - Just had an idea to prevent all the tech support calls about VBS/VM-P/UnderVolt Protection - If we detect that ThrottleStop does not have access to the voltage regulator interfaces (presumbly TS already has this logic built in to show the banner at the top), show a button the user...

You guys are referring to this method, right? Look through the exported file for UnderVolt Protection, CFG Lock, and Overclocking Lock - set them all to 0x0. If you see "OverClocking Feature" or "CPU Overclocking", set that to 0x1. SA GV allows automatic RAM clock speed downscaling during...

If you're brave, there is a potential **universal** way to unlock 11/12/13th gen HX/HK Intel laptops' undervolting capabilities even if the BIOS does not officially expose them. This guy's YouTube video has the rough outline for what to do: You don't really need to go the length of dumping...

Won't cause damage - the VR CURRENT indicator means the VRM is throttling back power to prevent itself from being cooked. I disabled BD PROCHOT in the BIOS (using the risky Advanced BIOS unlocker tool), so my only limits now are THERMAL, PL1, and VR CURRENT. Do NOT disable PROCHOT however, as...

Yeah, focus on Core and P cache undervolts only. The P cache will not undervolt as far as the cores - it's entirely normal for it to cap out sooner than the cores and they will likely not be the same value. The GPU can definitely be undervolted for huge gains especially in cross-load...

I can get 34.5k single run r23 on my Legion 7i Pro. 32.5k sustained 10 min run. Both using my 24/7 undervolt of -125mV core and cache.

Asus in their infinite wisdom made it so you could only undervolt in the BIOS and not in Windows...

LMAO, disabling Thermal Velocity Boost took me from 2057 to 2090 on single core:

Correct

Glad it helped! Use either Lenovo Vantage or Legion Toolkit to switch to Performance mode.

Oh yeah...I tried TS 9.6 on my desktop 13900K as well with Asus z690 board and it works with adjusting power limits, but undervolting the core voltage does not work there for some reason. However the P Cache voltage does work. Just did it for curiosity sake. I know I lost the silicon lottery on...

@carlos1172 I think we have our winner

@carlos1172 My single core performance is normal here... US version of your laptop. I did the above tweaks I mentioned plus -125 mV undervolt on CPU P cores and P cache, and what unclewebb mentioned with IccMax maxed out. BIOS version is kwcn35ww. My multi-core score is on the low side...

There's also this nugget https://www.businessinsider.com/china-zoom-data-2020-4

These Lenovo machines (and some other OEMs) include drivers that gimp performance for some reason. Here's how to disable them, Open regedit Go to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ACPIVPC Change the value of Start to 4 (which is Disabled). Take note of the original...
