Intel Core i5-7640X CPU Extreme Tuning Utility 7.7.0.12

Intel XTU is a Windows-based performance-tuning software that enables novice and experienced enthusiasts to overclock, monitor, and stress a system. The software interface exposes a set of robust capabilities common in most enthusiast platforms along with new features available on new Intel application processors and Intel motherboards.

Future Platform Support:

- Added per-core OC TVB support
- Added package OC TVB support
- Added Intel Speed Optimizer support
- Added VF Curve support

Enhanced AlderLake – S Support:

- Additional SKU support for Intel Speed Optimizer
- Added Efficient TVB support

Changes:

- Core Isolation Memory Integrity, Virtual Machine State, and Hyper-V state detection and notification updates
- Processor family and model naming conventions updated in the System Information tab

Known Issues:

- In some cases, XTU incorrectly detects the status of Core Isolation Memory Integrity if it has been turned on but the Group Policy setting for Device Guard Virtualization is manually set to disabled. This only occurs after the first reboot when changing this setting. The result is that XTU runs but cannot set valid real-time overclocking values. The solution is to reboot one additional time so that the group policy settings correctly set the state.
- Core Isolation Memory Integrity, Hyper-V, and Virtual Machine State are incompatible with XTU. XTU is unable to function when these features are enabled.
- HWBot Compare Online feature misidentifies 10850Ks as engineering samples

- Intel XTU Extension Device 7.7.0.2
- Intel XTU Component Device 7.7.0.12

About Tuning Utility:

Install this tuning utility and you will be able to manually configure various overclocking values, such as CPU and memory frequencies, system clocks, fan speeds, and monitor temperature for different components.

However, please note that you're supposed to tweak these settings only between supported ranges; changing configurations to extreme values without additional cooling systems might seriously damage components.

The installation steps needed for the software to be applied are very easy: get the downloadable package, extract it if necessary, run the available setup, and carefully follow all displayed instructions for a complete and successful installation.

In addition to that, please note that it's recommended you perform a system reboot so that all changes can take effect properly. Bear in mind that, even though other OSes might be compatible, we don't suggest against installing this release on platforms other than the highlighted ones.

That being said, click the download button, get the package and set up this feature on your system. For more on the latest releases, keep checking back with our website to “stay updated one minute ago.”
