ASUS has just released its new AGESA 1.2.0.1a BIOS update for high-end X670E motherboards within its ROG, ROG STRIX, & ProArt AM5 lineup. This new BIOS has one brand new feature for AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs, specifically the Ryzen 7 9700X & Ryzen 5 9600X based on the Zen 5 core architecture and that's the addition of the new "105W TDP" mode.

Recently, it was reported that AMD will be allowing its partners to add a new "105W TDP" mode which would boost the performance of its 65W-class Ryzen 9000 CPUs such as the Ryzen 7 9700X and the Ryzen 5 9600X. These two chips are decently efficient but those users who want an extra boost in performance can leverage the 105W TDP mode for better performance. Early results have shown that multi-threaded applications can see double-digit gains with this 105W profile and the clocks default to much higher rates than the default frequencies thanks to higher power limits.

MSI rolled out its update first, offering a test showcase of the new "105W TDP" mode and now ASUS has followed up with its release. The feature can be found in the Ai Tweaker menu as "cTDP to 105W" which can be enabled or disabled. The mode will be disabled by default and you will need to have the latest AGESA 1.2.0.1a BIOS for the following ASUS's motherboards to see it in the BIOS menu:

ROG CROSSHAIR X670E HERO BETA BIOS 2307
ROG CROSSHAIR X670E GENE BETA BIOS 2307
