Undervolt Protection (UVP) within Intel® XTU Desktop overclockable configurations refers to certain unlocked K/KF/KS/X processors paired with a Z/X PCH.

Depending on your BIOS, UVP can be disabled on specific overclockable configurations of Intel® processors.Disabling UVP exposes risks and vulnerabilities and is not recommended. UVP is enabled by default to maximize compatibility and prevent runtime voltage reductions.Altering clock frequency or voltage may void any product warranties and reduce stability, security, performance, and life of the processor and other components.This table shows which configurations are possible, if you do not see these options in your BIOS, contact your OEM or motherboard vendor.

OEMs make their own decisions about which menu options to expose to users.See the table below for UVP configuration with outcomes: Configuration The processor enforces UVP rules and limits, where selected BIOS can disable or change the minimum. Undervolt Protection is a microcode/processor feature that limits voltages from going below a set of voltage minimums, either of the user-defined BIOS value or default in-spec value (whichever is higher).
