    Please post your notebook/desktop model, if your PC come with no ability for voltage adjustment (undervolt) in bios/3rd party software as ThrottleStop or XTU... I will add it into this 1th post. Thanks

    The basis for creating this thread.
    Protecting your Intel CPU from Plundervolt attacks can ruin your overclock/undervolt

    Why remove the undervolying for some of 11th gen processors when Intel have removed the problem? Most likely greed. Yep, it has to be due greed!

    Intel have removed/abandoned the cancer SGX (software guard extension) from their newer processors as 11th and 12th gen processors.

    Why did Intel abandon SGX?
    As a secure enclave technology, SGX was commonly targeted by security researchers who discovered numerous vulnerabilities and attack methods.

    Examples of attacks targeting Intel SGX include:

    • the Prime+Probe attack discovered in 2017,
    • a Spectre-like attack disclosed in 2018,
    • an Enclave attack discovered by researchers in 2019,
    • a MicroScope replay attack,
    • the so-called "Plundervolt" injection attack,
    • a Load Value Injection (LVI), and
    • the SGAxe attack on the CPU cache resulting in the leak of the enclave's content.
    In summary, Intel had more to gain from SGX's deprecation from the perspective of security.
