Intel XTU Guide
Prepare UEFI for Intel XTU: enable XMP, loosen power and undervolt locks, then save. Pick your motherboard brand and follow each step.
Proceed with caution.
Voltage and power changes can cause instability or hardware stress if cooling or the VRM is insufficient. Change settings gradually and monitor temperatures.

Press F2 to leave the simple dashboard and open the full UEFI tuning layout.
