Minami Chan Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Hi everyone. I've heard that an unlocked BIOS will give me full control over the parameters for the CPU. Does that include unlocking the maximum multiplier limit (34x/4cores with 4700mq). Or is it just a way to go overclocking without IXTU? I'm confused.

svl7 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Depends, what system are you talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minami Chan Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Hi. My system is MSI GT70 Dragon Edition 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Is XTU working on your machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minami Chan Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Yes. I works perfectly except I can only push my 4700mq up to 34x/4 cores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Yeah, then a bios mod might help you. Though I don't remember the exact specs of the 4700mq, but I thought the max multi was 38, not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean007 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hey man, I bricked my*asus*g751jt by doing too low of undervolt and now it turns on, sits for few minutes and then turns off. Screen is black and the*keyboard*lights up but nothing else. You can hear the hard drive going but the system shuts of after 10 or so seconds. I took it apart, pulled the CMOS plus out and waited for 10 minute, disconnected the battery connector and did power dragon but nothing. Last thing is RMA but is there anything else I could do?

octiceps Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yes. I works perfectly except I can only push my 4700mq up to 34x/4 cores.That's the max you can do on a 4700MQ. A BIOS mod won't get you higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator BAKED Posted January 26, 2015 Moderator Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yes. I works perfectly except I can only push my 4700mq up to 34x/4 cores.That's the max on 4 cores, 36x1/35x2/34x3/34x4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokethat Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yeah I heard that sager puts a tight cap on coltage (or was it current?) in their BIOS, I'm thinking about flashing the clevo one or something similar as all I can really do in XTU is raise the overall preset clock.

Minami Chan Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Then what's the point of modded BIOS? Since IXTU can push it all the way up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean007 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yes I did, the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEGADOR Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Then what's the point of modded BIOS? Since IXTU can push it all the way up.I know that with a modded bios, it unlocks the ability to overclock your ram. Though, I think if you use more than 2 sticks of ram you'll have problems. I have 4x8gb sticks in my GT70 and can't overclock the ram without it freezing instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minami Chan Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 I think you still can oc your ram with IXTU though. Not sure if I'm right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
