JLuchinski Well-Known Member Mar 15, 2011 #3 Well I was able to check the unlock core voltage in the options but it still won't let me adjust it. Am I missing something?

Aastii VIP Member Mar 15, 2011 #5 Go to your install folder, by default it is C:\Program Files\MSI Afterburner open MSIAfterburner.cfg in notepad. Look for UnlockVoltageControl, and set it to 1 Open up MSI Afterburner and now you should be able to change the voltage to above the set limit
