Hello i was trying to OC my CPU a bit for higher clocks using the Intel XTU but even using the Optimize Power & Current Limits gives me an error

I've tried reinstalling Intel XTU, updating Bios and some other small things

it didn't work on win10 so i tried when i was changing to win11 and still same error

some info about computer even though i think everything is in SSU:

RAM - 4x8GB DDR4 3200 CL16

Nastyx, Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support.

For this scenario, it is important to mention that altering clock frequency or voltage may damage or reduce the useful life of the processor and other system components, and may reduce system stability and performance. Product warranties may not apply if the processor is operated beyond its specifications. 

I also noticed that the Intel® Core™ i7-11700KF processor is not listed as supported by the Intel® XTU tool:

Still, I will do further research on this matter to try to find a possible solution for this situation. As soon as I get any updates, I will post all the details on this thread.

Hello Nastyx, I just received an update on this matter.

Based on the fact that the processor is not listed as validated by the Intel® XTU tool, indicates that the program may no longer support this unit since updates to the software may lead to the discontinuation of support for older processor models.

In order to try to fix this issue, to change the IccMax in your system will be needed. Please follow the instructions in the link below on this topic:

Thank you for the reply

I probably found some old list of supported CPUs.

In advance tuning every value is present correctly so it probably just isn't supported and not letting me change some values.

Nastyx, You are very welcome. Thank you very much for your response.

Yes, you are correct, it seems that at this point the processor is no longer supported by the tool and that is why it is not possible to change some values. Still, it is great to hear that every value is present correctly for the proper functionality of the processor.

Any other inquiries, do not hesitate to contact us again.
