Well, the BIOS is just the standard one where you can't control anything except for boot order. I just do the 99% Maximum processor state trick to turn off Turbo Boost during summer. CPU WEI reduces from 7.5 to 7.1 if Turbo boost is off. Single or dual core optimized games suffer from CPU bottleneck while there is no FPS drop from quad core optmized games when Turbo Boost is off.
