Hello!

I'm trying to clock my CPU but i cant get the board to clock down at idle.
Can someone help me step by step to clock on this board? I have had no experience with MSI.

make sure power plan in Windows is set for 0% minimum CPU usage.

Use auto voltage.

Take screen shots of your bios and save them on a USB. I think it is F11 or F12. You must have a setting in the bios changed...

If XMP is enabled, it might be forcing custom Turbo profile. You may need to manually force default Turbo profile. Actually, looking back at my review, it DID force custom Turbo, even with XMP not enabled.

Now i have all settings to auto/default and managed to have Speedsteep to kick in

Now to the tricky MSI magic part, what should i change and not and still have Speedsteep activated?

skål!
