[REQUEST] Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC BIOS Unlock

[StevenTech7]

Hi everyone! My laptop battery got swollen, pushing out the touchpad. Therefore, i removed it. The thing is TDP is now limited and hovers around 50-60 on the gpu while gaming, causing fluctuating clocks and low performance. I made some research and its not a power plan problem, but a hardcoded bios setting. Its meant to protect the laptop from voltage spikes. However, if i want to use the laptop on an UPS, the performance is still bad.
Any tech savys know a workaround so that i wont have to buy a new battery? The cost would not be a problem but the heat will most likely make it swollen again, and condisering i use it on ac power most of the time...
Thanks in advance

Hello, do not continue to use the battery under any circumstances! If a battery swells, it is definitely defective and must be disposed of! Take the old battery to a battery collection point or landfill. I would buy a new battery if I were you. Who says that the heat causes the battery to swell? That's nonsense. As soon as a Lipo or a Lithium-Ion battery reaches its end, it usually always swells up. Buy a new battery and everything is fine.

Yeah, figured that much, got rid of it. I managed to unlock the bios too, with the help of some users here. Did anyone tried to overclock the ram?

[Roland83]

Overclocking the ram is working fine, unless you know what you are doing.  But in generall, 3200MHz Ram should work in all gl702zc. I´ve been trying to tighten the subtimings for now. This setting is working currently, stable without errors, no whea´s.

Impressive timings Roland! The following are stable on the apacer 3200mhz 2rx8 ram kit I'm using:

Hello everyone! Did someone managed to get smart acces memory to work with amernime drivers?

Where can I download the bios with the ram options at least?

Is the custom bios file still available? I need a bios with all the hidden menus unlocked. Unfortunately, the link is dead.

I would recommend this nowadays if you need access to the hidden menus
