I like to overclock as much as I can and considering the cooling in this laptop we should be able to squeeze some power out of this CPU. I had it overclocked to 35x on all four cores and then after I updated the BIOS from 202 to 203 Intel XTU gave me an error that some values were missing and when I made a new profile I noticed that every max was limited to one lower than before. I wonder if this was on purpose or just a mistake in the new BIOS. Either way it take a little bit of power away from us overclockers...
Thought I would give people a heads up.

Hey, thanks a lot! Considering that a meager 100mhz on the CPU got me another 3fps in Ungine Valley, anything we can get on this CPU is going to help us as we are held back by the CPU with our GPUs for sure. I am very curious why everyone decided to downgrade the CPUs for this generation considering that last generation all the laptops had 4810 processors. I wish we could unlock these things and really overclock them. It seems strange that Asus has these expensive laptops and didn't even bother to pair the correct CPUs with them in order not to bottleneck components.
EDIT: Went back to 202 with your method and now I am back to 3.5ghz on all four cores. Thanks again!

Awesome! 🙂
You could file a Technical Inquiry with Asus informing them of the "problem" introduced with 203 - that the range of clock rates changed and is adversely affecting your performance, so you rolled back to the previous BIOS, would they please issue a fixed BIOS 203 or a new BIOS with the clock speeds restored. 🙂
Just in case, I downloaded a copy of BIOS 202, just in case Asus pulls it later...
Good luck!

Hi there
Can we go over 35x?
I'm not a pro in overclocking but isnt a ratio of 35 what a 4710HQ is supposed to be when in turbo mode ?
