SFF Undervolting Help

[jcb33]

Hey all!

I've just built a new PC in the NR200 case.

I'm using the Asus Rog B760-i Gaming Wifi with an i7 13700 (non K) and I'm wanting to undervolt it a little just to get the temps under control a bit more.

Now the issue is that I cannot for the life of me find the "Switch Microcode" option to use Microcode 104. I've tried both the latest BIOS and older ones and am currently set to 1402 as I can see 100% that people have that option with this BIOS.

I've tried undervolting as is by reducing the core voltage by an offset of -0.10000 but that caused my R23 score to drop by some 4k points for very little thermal gain.

I know where the option should be, but I cannot find it and know I must be doing something wrong.

If anyone can help my silly bum out, it would be very appreciated!

Thanks!

In "Tweaker's Paradise" there is an option for you to change to a previous microcode, and Microcode 104 is what you should select.

After that you may start to undervolt in Ai Tweaker with the below steps:

- Leave "Actual VRM Core Voltage" on Auto

- Global Core SVID Voltage: set to Offset, choose negative (minus "-" icon), then start with 0.1

- Cache SVID Voltage: the same settings as Global Core SVID Voltage above

- You may increase to 0.125 or 0.15 if your stability test passed, mine is stable at 0.15 "

After testing for stability, I had to increase both Global Core SVID and Cache SVID to -0.160V (LLC: Level 5). No crashes. Runs both Prime95 and C23 past 30 minutes without crash.
