HI @nell1701,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To unlock the ability to undervolt the CPU in your HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop (15-dk1064tx) with an Intel Core i5-10300H, you will generally need to access advanced CPU settings that are often restricted in standard BIOS/UEFI firmware. Here’s a detailed guide on how you might go about this process:
1. Check BIOS/UEFI Settings
Enter BIOS/UEFI:
- Restart your laptop and press the Esc, F2, F10, or Delete key during boot to enter the BIOS/UEFI firmware settings. The exact key varies, so consult your laptop’s manual if necessary.
Look for Advanced Settings:
- In BIOS/UEFI, look for an Advanced, Overclocking, or Performance tab. The option to adjust CPU settings might be under one of these tabs.
Check for CPU Voltage Control:
- Some laptops have basic voltage control options within the BIOS. Look for settings related to CPU voltage or power. However, many consumer laptops have limited or no support for undervolting in BIOS.
2. Use Intel XTU (Extreme Tuning Utility)
If the BIOS/UEFI does not provide the option to undervolt the CPU, you can use Intel's software tools:
Download Intel XTU:
- Go to the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility (XTU) download page and download the latest version.
Install Intel XTU:
- Install the software following the on-screen instructions.
Run Intel XTU:
- Open Intel XTU and go to the Core section.
Adjust CPU Voltage:
- Look for settings related to Core Voltage or CPU Voltage Offset. You can start by reducing the voltage offset incrementally. Always apply small changes and test system stability after each adjustment.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
