MSI has prolonged its 6 GHz+ 1-click BIOS overclocking characteristic to a spread of Z790 & Z690 collection motherboards and additional optimized APO help too.
6 GHz+ 1-Click on Overclocking Now Supported By All MSI Z790 & Z690 Motherboards However Solely Suitable With Intel’s Core i9-14900K CPU
Again in September, MSI launched a brand new characteristic often called P-Core Past 6 GHz which allowed customers to push their 14th Gen CPUs as much as 6.3 GHz on a suitable motherboard. This characteristic was solely restricted to the brand new Z790 MAX motherboards on the time however since then, MSI has prolonged its help to Z790 and even Z690 motherboards.
As soon as once more, the MSI “P-Core Past 6 GHz+” characteristic shall be disabled by default however opening the tuning setting reveals a spread of choices that the consumer can choose. The primary clock pace is the utmost single-core frequency and the second clock pace is the utmost all-core frequency. The CPUs will be capable to function at as much as 6.3 GHz single-core and as much as 5.8 GHz all-core frequencies with the P-Core Past profile enabled.
This characteristic will routinely alter the CPU and Motherboard to hit the required energy settings to realize such excessive frequencies although auto-tuning might lead to unnecessarily excessive voltages so that is solely good for much less skilled customers. However nonetheless, in case you assume your motherboard is sweet sufficient to maintain such excessive clock speeds and you might be all set with high-end cooling, then you’ll be able to undoubtedly attempt pushing your chip past 6 GHz. The characteristic solely works with Intel’s Core i9-14900K CPU which is clocked at 6 GHz out of the field.
Along with the 6 GHz+ BIOS characteristic, MSI can be including optimized Intel APO performance throughout its motherboard portfolio which incorporates the Z790, Z690, B760, B660, and H610 collection. The APO characteristic has proven some nice performance-boosting capabilities in video games however unfortuniately, it helps simply 14th Gen “Unlocked” CPUs which is form of a bummer contemplating that the 14th Gen CPUs share the identical structure because the thirteenth Gen CPUs and are a slight revision over the twelfth Gen chips.
