1. I've sent you a mod in PM ,try it then respond to the result here.
2. How to activate Throttlestop & XTU ? try the below steps.
(1). Go into new advanced tab >> Power & Performance >> CPU - Power Management Control >> CPU Lock Configuration ,then disable "CFG Lock" & "Overclocking Lock".
(2). Go into new advanced tab >> OverClocking Performance Menu ,then enable "XTU Interface".
(3). If you only need to activate Throttlestop , only need to do step1.

Thank you so much
I have flashed successfully But its still limit me at 25W while in games or PremirePro or other using nvdia GPU app
maybe cpu microcode or something or some limit that asus add (i dont know much about this stuff)
I pretty sure Powerbrick can handle more Watts
But I see Advance menu bios and I can use Throttlestop to undervolt now
but still can't use xtu even enabled in bios but this is better than stock anyways
appreciated your work !

1. You could try to change tdp restriction by setting PL1 or pl2 in bios. I seem heard the same 25w tdp restriction in another laptop ,but i can't remember.
2. XTU can do cpu undervolt only ,other operations may not or some options are still greyed out.
@genius239 i try everything set pl1 pl2 even set tdp to 80w disable C state reinstall windows / reflash moded bios nothing is working still cap me at 25w while use nvdia gpu task
Is there a option that asus force 25w when using gpu?
Can you remove that?
There is so much thermal head room there i have changed thermal paste its runs 25w max at 75c
@pnpptt
There is not a solution yet to solve this 25w restriction, i've searched my old mail and found the same problems in a fx505gd & fx5054gm ,but no solution yet.
Below is a response from a fx504gm user ,he seems break this restriction momently ,but he didn't reply me so i don'tk now what him did.

I have gone to many forum talk about Mod the EC
Idk is this laptop have EC controller in the same chip as bios or not but normally it in the same chip so can you try mod that idk is it a similar thing or not
Thanks for helping me this far.
@pnpptt
No ,EC is usually a independent chip in mainboard of a laptop ,it didn't be included in bios region.
