The model is an ASUS K501UW-72 but the series is K501UW if that means it applies to the entire series. Thanks again if you check this out .

Open a command prompt as administrator in the Afuwin folder you just extracted
Type "AFUWINx64.exe backup.rom /O" (without quotes)
Save the generated file somewhere safe so you can still access it if you pc won't boot
Send the generated rom file to me and I will attempt to unlock most options
I modded your BIOS, I enabled all options that I could enable and I attempted to enable the chipset tab as well (you'll have to flash the BIOS to see if it's there or not)
First of all: I am not responsible for any damage you do to your laptop!

In Advanced >> Platform Misc Config >> DPTF Configuration
And In Advanced >> Platform Misc Config >> DPTF Configuration >> Policy Configuration
And Advanced >> Platform Misc Config >> Platform Setting
And advanced >> Thermal Config >> Platform Thermal Configuration
If you do not see Platform Misc Config or Thermal Config in Advanced section, then further edits will be needed. If you need those additional edits I can do
Not sure any of that applies to "GPU" thermal limits, but those sections cover are all the thermal controls in this BIOS

Yes, sorry I mentioned at the end, nothing in the BIOS for GPU thermal settings. Dump your GPU BIOS with GPU-z and maybe it's fan curve can be edited or voltages lowered. Upload the dump here and I will check it if you can't find a tool that works with it.
