BİOS Advanced settings

[MUSAERC]

Hello, I am a Victus Gaming Laptop 16-r1045nt user. I bought this product and it has an i7-14700HX processor. Unfortunately, the processor allows all kinds of interventions, but due to HP policy, there is no access to the BIOS Advanced settings. My device uses very high Wattage and the temperature rises. I need to unlock my voltage. When there is a problem, I accept all my fault and accept that it will not be covered by the warranty.

Hi @MUSAERC,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

Thank you for reaching out and for explaining your situation so clearly. I completely understand where you're coming from as a power user looking to take finer control over your system's performance, thermals, and power limits — especially with a high-performance processor like the i7-14700hx.

HP, like most Laptop manufacturers, locks access to advanced BIOS options (including undervolting and voltage offset controls) on consumer and gaming laptop lines — including the Victus Gaming series — for several reasons:

• To protect hardware from unintentional or unsafe settings
• To maintain system stability
• To ensure warranty coverage stays intact

 
Though undervolting may not be accessible:

• You can still optimize thermals and limit wattage spikes using:
  • Windows Power Plans (set to Balanced or Power Saver when you don’t need full performance)
  • HP Command Centre (if available on your system)
     

Hope I was able to answer your query.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.

I did some research on the internet and learned that HP users have been victimized by this issue for years. Because of this situation, I regret buying an HP product. I hope HP will correct this wrong policy soon (my personal opinion).
