[SOLVED] Do I need to turn off Win11 memory integrity to undervolt and can I turn it back on after?

[SuneDK]

Basically the topic title

Intel Extreme wouldn't run and suggested I turned off the win11 memory integrity feature.

Can I turn it back on after I have undervolted?

Is there a better way to undervolt? like does the asus z790-plus wifi, have a bios feature that is better to use?

If a program installs a driver incompatible with mem integrity (like Intel Extreme, apparently) this will require that feature to be disabled as long as the program is installed (and the incompatible driver loaded). A modern (UEFI) Bios on a higher end retail board that supports OC will have those features though.

You can undervolt directly in UEFI. The tool just makes it convenient because you can test multiple values without needing to reboot the computer each time you want to make a change.

I'm not familiar with Intel Extreme, but it may be the problem with it may be with CPU hardware virtualization which Memory Integrity needs enabled in order to work in Windows. So CPU virtualization may need to be disabled in BIOS, which will also disable Core Isolation along with Memory Integrity.

I’m pretty sure it’s just whenever the program is running, not installed. I could be wrong, haven’t checked.

As to the original question, if you’re really concerned about security, you could use XTU to find a setting your PC is stable with, then apply it in BIOS and turn Mem Integrity back on.
