Hello, guys!
I am currently trying to get all Intel Core i7 9750H cores beyond the 4.0 GHz. I got in touch with Mr. Fox and he advised to disable to Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework to get more performance in the Core i7 9750H.
I have disabled with via Windows with some performance gains, but after a while (about 3 minutes after system start) the CPU Clocks starts to fall even with the system idle (the temps are ok, around 50o C in idle).
Now, I am whiling to disable DPTF in BIOS. But, when a run setup_var Setup 0x39E it returns something like "expected a different size of the Setup variable (got 5832( 0x16c8) bytes.). Continue with care…"
This is the "code" from the BIOS:

Any idea how I can disable DPTF through EFI?
