    Hi.
    Been using for some time XTU to apply some BCLK overclocking in addition to multiplier overclocking.
    This gives a slightly lower power consumption at higher clocks (some sort of an undervolt) while also having better performance due to the overclock also applying to RAM. (DDR3 1600 ->1667).

    Is there a way to apply the same parameters using software other than XTU, like RW-Everything or writing to MSRs?
