YourDad Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Seems the bios is missing the ability to change the clock multiplier. This is a feature on the asrock motherboard used (X299E-ITX/ac). Bios devs. Please let me adjust my multiplier (...in before "we already tuned it"). Maybe I'm missing something.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Mint Posted March 26, 2019 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 26, 2019 Hi YourDad, unfortunately, the system was designed with such strict thermals that they options for the multiplier were locked to ensure the system doesn't deviate heat curves it was tested at.

YourDad Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share Posted March 28, 2019 Ok, but I want to customize mine. Trust me, I’m an engineer. Why take this away from power users that know what they are doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username99 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Maybe this function will be added to the next BIOS version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake_westmorley Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 So it seems at least the latest BIOS on the i180/i182 now allows to set the CPU multipliers, which is a great step up. However, it seems we still don't have access to the TDP limit settings from the regular X299E-ITX/ac. Also, if one enables MCE multi-core-enhancement, it seems this option also removes all TDP limits. This causes the CPU to predictably shoot up in temperature and quickly overwhelm the cooling system. A more balanced approach would be to allow the MCE yet keep the TDP limits to 165/170W as per the original configuration. A completely custom approach would allow the user to define their own TDP limits. In the i16x series, the MCE option by default doesn't remove the TDP limits, which I think is a lot safer/easier. Can we get the same for the i18x? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
