Latest Intel XTU allows 2 bins for G751 / i7-4710HQ

Hey, guys.

So in the i7-4720HQ thread >here< Antoine supposedly came across something interesting.
All I had to do was install XTU 6.0.2.8 (which had to be done manually, since XTU itself didn't recognize the new version) and voila. 3.5 > 3.7GHz. Haven't done any benchmarks yet, but there you have it.

55378

Previously, this wasn't possible with firmware over version 202, though I have not tested older versions of XTU for it...since, apparently, this version bypasses whatever changes ASUS might have made. Thanks, Intel?
No troubles so far with it ... an extra 100MHz is an extra 100MHz. Dunno what changed.
I imagine this would work for all G751s. Have a go I guess, not much to lose.
No problems with Watchdog, either. Running firmware ver. 207 and Win10. warryabel thinks it won't work on Win8?

Highest G751JY score to date: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/11437793 using the 202 BIOS (why GPU isn't recognized). Battery drained 10% during benchmark. CPU maxed out at 82.1W (notice the OC) and GPU at 212.4W. Time to start looking at the Dell X51 330W AC adapter.

x40 isnt default... only modded bios or is this the result of 202 because higher multis(+2bin)?

Modified of course. I can go higher, up to 4.2Ghz but at +183.6mV and temps are a problem. I can cool 4.0Ghz with my mods in everything for a 24/7 clock but with AC adapter maxing out completely now with the GPU overclock as well, I'll have to stick with 4.0Ghz until X51 AC adapter arrives.

It's also all 4 cores locked at 4.0Ghz too.

Possible with G752VY? Skylake 6700HQ 4.0Ghz + 3D Vapor Chamber Cooling
