Okay, turbo unlock on ZX-xxxxxx dual socket Chinese motherboard, and two 2699 v3 CPU's works fine. The board houses 2x m.2, but I can only get one to boot the OS/Insaller. Awhile ago I Turbo unlocked an ASUS Z10pc-d8 by, FPT to dump BIOS, SCAN(Member here) modded and returned the BIOS to me, and i flashed the board, and it worked fine. Here's my question. Even though I could dump BIOS using FPT, did I flash BIOS the same way, or did I use the Boards built in BIOS flash utility?, or something else... I didn't need the external BIOS programming hardware. What option would somebody suggest I use on a Z10-PA-D8. to flash $f2 microcode removed MODDED BIOS?, that is if i can use the FPT tooll to dump the current. It worked on a Z10PC-D8, the z10pa-d8 isn't much different... Much thanks!!! (waiting on board to arrive).

Not as many BIOS modders here as there used to be. Even 10 years ago there weren't really that many. I go elsewhere for BIOS modding discussions. Good luck!

Look on youtube for "Miyconst Turbo Unlock" his videos have file links to download. goto ASUS and download the latest version. THe use the MMTool and delete the $f2 microcode, save it as "modded.rom" or whatever you want to name it. then make a bootable USB flash drive, using Rufus, put the moddedbios.rom file, AND "AFUDOS" on the flash drive. Be certain to download a Newer' version of AFUDOS. DO NOT FLASH IN WINDOWS... ok. boot to DOS be sure your in the right folder, Nd type 'afudos filename.rom /GAN, and let do its thing.. takes a couple mins.. "filename=your saved file from MM-Tool". once BIOS is flashed, find a suitable "v3x2.efi" file. Look for cableguy on github, he has several undervol.t to choose from. or look up MOF on this forum.. actually only a few posts ago, Right In this thread. make another bootable flash drive. Format fat32(In all instances), copy the contents you downloaded from Miyconsts tutorials, onto the root directory of your flash drive.., and include a suitable v3x2.efi, from there copy the modded .EFI file using afudos to your storage means.. to simplifyAll of this, LOOK UP "MIYCONST TURBO UNLOCK" on youtube.. its all interesting too see, and he's very professional.. if you need anymorehelp, message me..

Just watch one or two of Miyconst's videos on youtube. There are numerous ways to do it. Just watch some videos and ask questions once you've been briefed. Thanks...
Great channel. I picked up some tips from him when playing with an X79 setup.
