Lost_N_BIOS,
I unlock "Multi Core Enhancement", but enabling this option in bios does not work at all.
I try unlock like User and Supervisor... Sad
I've unlocked this entire BIOS before (all menus and settings = BIOS in post #12 of this thread, or did I forget this setting in that BIOS?), so it's possible, sounds like you need to edit setup module to unsuppress first (Then test by itself), then if no luck yet, try AMIBCP edit on top of that.

If you don't want to use the full unlocked BIOS from post #12, or I forgot that setting in that BIOS - Here is edited BIOS with multi core setting unsuppressed at setup module (And only this change). Test this as-is first, then if you do not see multi-core setting still, do AMIBCP edit User or Super. Or let me know, I can add this change to previous unlocked BIOS. This is 2.16 BIOS

Lost_N_BIOS,
Thank you very much! For flashing this bios should i use afudos or something else?
You're welcome. Whatever you've been flashing your test BIOS with previously. You should be able to rename to stock and flash from within the BIOS using the built in flashing tool.
I unlocked Multi Core Enhancement in the bios that you attached.
But, unfortunately Multi Core Enhancement=enable - not working.
Perhaps this setting is disabled at some other level. And it does not matter whether it is turned on or off in the BIOS.
I read an old article where some old microcode from "beta bios" was stitched into the BIOS for this board. And it seems like Multi Core Enhancement worked well. The article also had a link to this BIOS, but the link is outdated. Sad
Please clarify, can you see the MCE Setting in BIOS or not? I re-read your post at #21, and now think you said you already made it visible in BIOS, is that correct, you can see it in BIOS before? If yes, sorry, I thought you couldn't see it, hence above and below comments until you clarify.

Did you test the BIOS I sent you without modifying it first? You need to do that first. Then if no MCE setting, test AMIBCP edit to User, then if still no MCE try Super. Are you using AMIBCP 4.55?

No, it can be enabled easily, I've done it before, fully unlocked this BIOS and seen the images back of the unlocked BIOS. Yes, some old CPU microcode may be needed for the setting to work, but not for the setting to be visible in BIOS. Link me to that article, so I can check if microcode revision is mentioned or if I can find working link rehosted for that BIOS, so I can get microcode version. Also, certain ME FW version might be required too, if this is the case you may need flash programmer to downgrade ME easier.

I will make you a set of test BIOS, if you cannot see Multi Core Enhancement setting in BIOS at all, ever, let me know.
Yes, I saw MCE in bios before, I managed to unblock it myself with AMIBCP 4.55. But enabling this setting in bios not working.

Yes, no effect. I tested all your bios.

Article in Russian language - "How to get permanently Turbo Boost on all cores". There, everything is explained superficially, no clarification of which microcode is used, and only a outdated link to the BIOS.
+ A week ago I contacted the support asrock to get a bios with unlocked mce. But I think it is useless.

Thx!
btw Sorry for my bad English Smile
Thank you for clarifying! All this time, I first thought you couldn't see the setting in BIOS Big Grin

What CPU are you using? You need to use microcode rev 7, and some CPU not compatible with that. Do you have flash programmer to recover in case your CPU doesn't work with that microcode? This is same as Non-Z / Non-K OC, easy to find BIOS info or BIOS mods when you search using that as your main terms.

Unfortunately I do not have a flash programmer Sad
It's best you order one now and wait until delivery, then we can test Rev 7, 9, 12 microcodes safely.
Here's what you need, just examples, you can order from other places/stores or other sellers that ship faster etc.
