A few days ago we saw how AMD announced that the new processors they launched, the 9600X and the 9700X would have the ability to operate above the TDP that they set up as a base, and this time both ASUS as Gigabyte were the first brands to integrate this function to increase it up to 105 W. To do this, we will have to follow a series of steps that will allow us to update the BIOS to activate this function that will improve the performance of these latest generation AMD processors.
Getting the best performance on a computer is not something too complicated, and there are a large number of utilities that we can get for free for this, but many of them can be complicated to use. But this time, increase the power (and consumption) of two of the new processors AMD
New BIOS Updates from ASUS and Gigabyte Bring New Features to AMD CPUs
Unlocking the maximum potential that a processor can offer us can be something complicated at first, and in many cases the first thing we think about in these cases is overclocking or similar on that component so that it works very well. This usually implies that we expose ourselves to problems, which means that we must be very careful with any type of change that we apply, but there are also times when the changes are implemented by the brand itself to increase the performance of your chip.
This time from AMD have released an update that has already reached the motherboards of both ASUS from Gigabyte which allows users with processors Ryzen 9600X And Ryzen 9700X significantly increase performance through increased TDP that they use. As we well know, both of these processors are configured at 65W, which means that they consume much less but only improve performance by 10-15% compared to the previous generation that the company launched on the market a few years ago.
With this update, users will be able to enjoy a 20-25% improvement compared to previous generation models, which is a real step forward when it comes to acquiring one of these new processors. To do this, we will only have to update the BIOS of our motherboard with the new patch compatible with this function, and after that we will have to open the BIOS and go to the “TDP at 105 W” option, it is really simple and we will just have to search a little in each option to find it:
- ASUS:Advanced Mode -> Ai Tweaker -> cTDP at 105W -> “Enabled”
- Gigabyte: Advanced Mode -> Tweaker -> TDP to 105 W -> “Enabled”
