Developer: Avkila
Status: Tested / Working
- Overclocking: Injected OC driver. Multiplier/Voltage control unlocked.
- Memory Tuning: Injected memory driver. Access to timings/frequency unlocked.
- Power Limits: Current limits removed (Manual configuration required in BIOS).
- Resizable BAR: Injected RebarDxe driver.
- BCLK Fix: Spread Spectrum killed via Intel FIT. Fixed 100MHz BCLK.
- Turbo Boost: No Turbo Boost unlock injected except for the one that explicitly says "TBU" on it.
- Power Limit Safety: Most E5 26xx v3/v4 and 16xx v4 CPUs have a hard cap at 140W and are completely fine with this BIOS.
- High Wattage CPUs: Chips like the E5 1650v3, 1660v3, 1680v3, i7 6700k, 6800k, and 6950X are fine to use if you leave the power limits enabled.
- Stable Overclocking: Because Chinese boards often have very aggressive built-in power limits, I recommend disabling the power limit in the BIOS for a stable overclock, but then setting a manual power limit in Intel XTU.
Caution
CSM MUST BE OFF: You must disable CSM (Compatibility Support Module) in the BIOS. The RebarDxe driver will cause a boot failure/hang if CSM is enabled. Ensure your OS is on a GPT partition. If you absolutely need to boot on Legacy video, please reset your CMOS by removing the CR2032 battery from the motherboard. The ReBarDXE driver will not work if your date and time is set before 2024.
