[GUIDE] Unlock the EC TDP limit of your low power U series Intel CPU
If you are like me and don't have the option, you need to modify the option through EFI shell. Download UEFI Tool, IFR extractor, RU.efi, and UEFI Shell, and your bios.bin/biosfd . On HP laptops, you can obtain it through the third option "Copy" . You can find the platform ID in the bios.
