Enabling bclk overclock

[GirlFromYonder]

Fuck you intel, is there any way to downgrade the microcode or some how manage to enable the bclk overclocking feature. For people how DONT know, YOU CAN BCLK OVERCLOCK WITH SKYLAKE. it is just that intel upgraded the micro code and the PCI-E clocks and processor clock are independent.

It still works for me, but my board allows me to choose which microcode update to use.

 

Although, all I had to do was download the BIOS that allowed it, and I never even touched the microcode thing.

 

(On my i3 6320 that I was using previously to my 6700k)

a company that is locking a feature that wasnt supposed to be enabled is in the wrong now? ._.

 

just install an older version of the bios and hope it fixes that

Why are you blaming Intel? It's the motherboard manufactures who made did it possible to overclock locked CPUs. Intel's is doing it's job. If you want to overclock, go buy an i5 or i7.

You've got the locked i5. The unlocked i5 is the 6600K. Unlocked i7 is 6700K.

Imo, Intel shouldnt be changing things after the fact. To me that would be like buying a car that can go 120MPH and the manufacturer saying, well we didnt intend for you to be able to drive the car that fast unless you paid extra and bought a different car so we changed some code on the ECM that limits the speed when you came in for an oil change. It is shady.

It's not shady, Intel never advertised overclocking for locked SKUs, and they couldn't until you were given a BIOS update that they had no hand in creating. It was the motherboard manufacturers who "changed something after the fact." All Intel did was change it back to their original design—the same design they've been using [for better or worse] for many years now.
