PontiacGTX Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I have been thinking what if someone could add the cpu micro code to z170 bios to recognize these Kaby lake cpus that dont have an unlocked multiplier on motherboards that allow non K Overclocking on Skylake or if some brand keeps this feature by default(asrock could) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoMpIs PoMpIs Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Did you update bios to get support? Of course, because without updating the bios does not start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PontiacGTX Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Of course, because without updating the bios does not start that is the reason the old bios with BCLK overclock feature needs a mod it to be able to OC the Kaby lake/Skylake Refresh CPUs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps000000 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Intel may done something inside kaby cpus to prevent non-k oc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Intel blocked non-K overclocking for Skylake in a microcode update. In order for motherboards to support Kaby Lake processors, the newer microcode is required. So unfortunately no non-K overclocking for Kaby Lake.

PontiacGTX Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 if people uses the old BIOS they cna still use that feature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PontiacGTX Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 then someone has tried modifying z170 bios which allowed non K CPUs and add it replacing an older cpu from that list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
