@Morockin Perhaps you can share some screenshots what you did for OC? Only BLCK OC?

Happy to share! Images of my BIOS settings are attached. With these settings I have been able to run my QL1K's at over 3.7ghz on all cores simultaneously, with some cores going as high as 4.3ghz. Haven's had any significant heat issues, but mind you I have some giant cpu coolers and am running these in a relatively cool environment.

@Morockin Thanks for the guide, I have used all your settings, but I still stuck on 2.2GHz Allcore, is there perhaps picture 1 missing? Perhaps you did also unlock something in Digi+ Power Control?

@Lost_N_BIOS - I am trying to get my CPU - Xeon ES Gold 6130 - QL1M to work, but I am not successful. I do have 6 RAM Modules of the following type - Samsung M393A4K40BB1 - DDR4-2400 MHz (PC4-19200). They are in the RAM QVL list of ASUS. Whenever I put anyone of them in the memory slot A of the first CPU - I end-up with "bb" memory error code.

Do you think this indicates that they are all faulty ? Or are they not compatible with the CPU - which is listed as max DDR4-2666 MHz. But I thought one can always use slower DRAM Modules - correct ?

Whenever I try and start the board with a CPU only - I am getting "b0" code.

I did try both modified BIOS-es (5503 and 6201) - the outcome is the same. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks in advance.

P.S The more I think about this - the more I am wondering if the BIOS update went OK. Is there a way to check if the actual BIOS is really the modded one and not the ASUS factory one ?

@Lost_N_BIOS
It's random but do you have 0801 or lower version bios of C621e sage motherboard which supports es cpu?
I'm trying to install hackintosh on my pc but I need 0801 or lower version of bios to install hackintosh
My cpu is ql1k
I'm really really sorry if I make you feel uncomfortable with this
Have a great day

@Smsmqkmq - I do not have that, and not sure if I could make that either due to compatible SECCore would not be in there and not sure if we can easily swap that around ( @avd @Airo - Do you know if it's possible to just swap SECCore to another BIOS?)
Why would you need older BIOS for that? Just modify latest mod BIOS for MAC and you will be good to go

@Lost_N_BIOS
more specifically I've tried to unlock cfg lock but it's pretty weird
This motherboard's bios file has 4 cfg related setup_var
0xB4, 0xB5, 0xB6, 0xB7
Not only that but also default var value is weird common motherboard has 0x01 or 0x00 value which means locked or unlocked register status but this one has 0x05 value
I used modified grub shell https:// github.com/datasone/grub-mod-setup_var/releases
And it said every four of register have 0x00 value
https:// dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/misc/msr-lock.html#disabling-cfg-lock
And then I tried RU method but I couldn't find CPUSetup menu

And I asked for 0801 version because of his comments https:// www. hackintosh-forum.de/forum/thread/48903-kernel-panic-intel-xeon-w-2223-c621/?postID=612334#post612334

And thank you so much for your help

@Smsmqkmq - One guy says this about 0801? How do you know that is the only way??
About CFG Lock, I checked 0801 for you - First, make sure when you are doing any of this (grub/setup_var, or RU method), that you have secure boot disabled, no TPM enabled, and no BIOS password set
Are you sure those are CFG Lock? None of them are named CFG Lock, but have other name before CFG Lock, so may not be same thing. The Help info for those settings says "When set locks "various" PM registers" I've never seen any CFG lock say that before, sounds odd to me, may not be correct thing.

Anyway, to change with RU you need to go into >> SocketPowerManagementConfig @ GUID >> A1047342-BDBA-4DAE-A67A-40979B65C7F8
This is VarStore: 0x5, where these particular settings are stored

Also, unless you are looking at some other BIOS version than 0801, you have incorrect variables mentioned above? For 0801 >>
SAPMCTL_CFG LOCK, VarStoreInfo (VarOffset/VarName): 0xB2, VarStore: 0x5, QuestionId: 0x1824, Size: 1, Min: 0x0, Max 0x1, Step: 0x0 {05 91 9C 19 A4 19 24 18 05 00 B2 00 10 10 00 01 00}

You are correct, 00 = disabled and 01 = enabled.
I think you are in wrong location probably, even if you are using other BIOS than 0801 and have correct variables mentioned, it's in VarStore 0x5 which is not CPUSetup
But, since you could not find that CPUSetup, what are you even looking at to say you see a 00 or 05 etc? You have to be in correct GUID, before you can see what current setting are stored as

* Edit - Had a look around, since that setting did not lock correct to me (SAPMCTL_CFG LOCK I mean), and I see this from @CodeRush (maybe he can help you disable CFG lock here, if he's not busy and around?) >>
https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool/issues/91
And same confirmation of that's not it here - https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/succe...2.253466/page-8

@Lost_N_BIOS
Thank you again for your help!
I successfully unlocked cfg lock of this mobo
But I just gave up to install hackintosh lol
It takes so much time
I gotta buy small socket consumer cpu to build another hackintosh computer instead of doing this :/

I haven't seen person like you who leave long help reply to noob like me lol
And thanks for your bios too!

@Smsmqkmq - Nice! I was just coming to give you BIOS to test, I found one byte edit to disable it too!
Here is file, since I already uploaded it before I seen your post above, and in case you want it for later, or want to test, or anyone else needs later etc - https://ufile.io/09szafzw

If anyone needs to do this edit on later/other BIOS versions, extract PpmInitialize PE32 Body and do >> 742CB9E2000000 >>> 752CB9E2000000
I suggest UEFITool 25.0 to do this, other tools, methods etc may break the BIOS (ie remove critical padding file from other volume on BIOS rebuild)

You're welcome, and thanks for the kind supportive works, I appreciate it!

I just got a few ES chips that arrived (Intel Xeon QL1F 8176 ES 8180 CPU). Just want to confirm, that mainboard "ASUS WS C621E SAGE" with modded bios in this thread can make them work? Since I can't get any supermicro X11DPH in my area.
Thanks.

@dkatkr - @levelud and @avd both have used those chips here, so should be fine
Latest mod BIOS is at post #489

Thanks for your great work!

@dkatkr - You're welcome! Good luck on a smooth setup
