Intel Overclocking SDK

Hi, I've come across some technical info regarding an Intel Overclocking SDK for developers, including something called the XTU SDK Demo Application, which allows you to view and set system and CPU operational values, like clock frequencies and voltages, via an API.

Where can I find this SDK and its documentation?

Thanks, Fin

Hi Fin,

Thank you for raising this query. The Intel XTU can be downloaded through below link

Refer below link on how to use Intel XTU,

Also, to keep you informed that overclocking will void your warranty, however with Performance Tuning Protection Plan allows for a one-time return if your qualifying processor was damaged due to overclocking. You may find the below link useful to know about Performance Tuning Protection Plan,

Hi Arvind,

Thanks for the info on the XTU app. However, what I'm looking for is a software development kit that would let me build my own app that modifies system and CPU speeds and voltages, and it looks like Intel has an SDK that allows this.

Where can I find the Intel Overclocking SDK that does this?

Thanks, Fin
