T3680 bios options - very desirable and necessary

I know it is not Dell practice, but because of actual and potential problems with 13/14th gen cpu's and improve thermal conditions under high workloads it would be good add some options in bios regarding cpu and thermal setup:

- core locking clock (limited only to underclock)

- option of enable/disable thermal velocity boost

- undervolting option(s) (or unlock this option for XTU soft or add some posibility of adaptation)

Thermal management option (I don't know is bios only control it):

My experience is that Dell try to protect fan, not cpu. It's ok to be silent, but when cpu go hot actual strategy is wait about 5-10sec before sped-up fans and slow down immediately after reduce workload (and again have delay before speed up). Many programs (beacuse of 1000 reasons) reduce workload for short time (about 1sec) and again go to full, so actual strategy never try to really good cool of cpu and it mostly always go >80C . Please add thermal option which is little more active than actual options.

All (cpu related) of this options are actually underclocking options to reduce cpu strain - it is necessary for these cpus. Some of then can cause instability (undervolt if wrong use) but I think in this case it will be better to add.

Best regards
