You'll probably get a better OC with a tweak in the BIOS.

 

MSI's preloaded stuff isn't exactly....great

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X | GPU: MSI X Trio GeForce RTX 2070S | RAM: XPG Spectrix D60G 32GB DDR4-3200 | Storage: 512GB XPG SX8200P + 2TB 7200RPM Seagate Barracuda Compute | OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro

 

The Portable Workstation (Apple MacBook Pro 16" 2021)

SoC: Apple M1 Max (8+2 core CPU w/ 32-core GPU) | RAM: 32GB unified LPDDR5 | Storage: 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD | OS: macOS Monterey

 

The Communicator (Apple iPhone 13 Pro)

SoC: Apple A15 Bionic | RAM: 6GB LPDDR4X | Storage: 128GB internal w/ NVMe controller | Display: 6.1" 2532x1170 "Super Retina XDR" OLED with VRR at up to 120Hz | OS: iOS 15.1

You were a bit vague in the what Hardware you are using, is this a laptop or a desktop. Bloatware on both is considerable with MSI products. However, if your not an experienced overclocker most brands have Auto OC features in the bios, allowing you to bypass any in OS software.

why though, you might be able to have a command line program (bat file) to do it though 

this....

 

.... would be a way more elegant option compared to wasting ressources on yet another program that runs in the background

You may not understand me. I dont want to OC the CPU my cpu is intel not K series and it cant be OC. I want it some program lime msi gaming app that have Gaming mode on CPU and keep CPU at his max speed (max GHZ)

Just go into your BIOS and turn off Intel SpeedStep, Intel Enhanced SpeedStep, C-States and anything with "Power Saving". Leave TurboBoost on for better performance.

 

Then go to Windows Control Panel, then to Power Options, then click "High Performance".

 

Then uninstall MSI Gaming App because its shit. I tried to use it to put my Graphics Card into "OC Mode" and it froze my system, I had to unplug it and wait for all the power to drain out of the capacitors to get my PC back to normal.

Server:

Intel Core i7 6700K | 16 GB RAM | 2 TB HDD | Debian Linux

OK, you can leave the BIOS settings and you can change the Power Settings to High Performance to game and then back to Balanced for normal stuff.

 

But honestly you can just leave it in Balanced and not worry about changing modes since the CPU will just run faster automatically when a load is put on it so it doesn't really matter.

You can do it through power options for one power option and then make a .bat file with this:

 

echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion

echo Available power schemes:
echo/

set i=0
set "options="
for /F "tokens=2,3 delims=:()" %%a in ('powercfg /L') do if "%%b" neq "" (
   set /A i+=1
   set "options=!options!!i!"
   echo !i!. %%b
   set "scheme[!i!]=%%a"
)

echo/
choice /C %options% /N /M "Select desired scheme: "
powercfg /S !scheme[%errorlevel%]!
echo/
echo Power scheme set

 

 

That way you can open that .bat file and select a number which power option to change to.

And you can also make a .bat file that kills unnecessary tasks and services.
