[SOLVED] MSI OC genie not in bios?

[Fman1854]

I decided to revive my old build from 2011 currently running
AMD phenom x4 955 BE OC stable at 4.1ghz a core
MSI GTX 960 2gb
MSI 760gm fx+ MB
550w Corsair PSU

So my motherboard standard says it comes with OC genie a feature I never used as I always used Amd overdrive to clock but bios OC is a better option with more control however when I access my bios I have no OC genie bios option or any overclocking options but I still have the box my MB came in and it literally has on the front of the box Oc genie enabled. Is there something I’m missing here or?


Looking at the board manual online it also says it features oc genie in the bios on this MB and it should just be a option in bios called oc genie at the bottom but I don’t have this tab?

There were several MSI 760GM (FX) boards. The most common was the MSI 760GM-P23 (FX) . Does yours have another designation similar to that along with the name?

P23 is my version

MSI site for this exact model states OC genie support

I can send a pic of my bios options. Could my bios be out dated driver wise? Even thab wouldn't it come stock with OC genie installed irregardless.

Page 26 of the manual explains where to enable it. But from my experience, it never worked very well.

It should be in the Cell menu

Yes I checked that as I saw a YouTube video of the exact MOB being OC using oc genie. I downloaded a 1.8mb bios update and installed it and now have the option to use OC genie not sure why it wasn’t here stock but the update seemed to fix it. Please file as solved or resolved and thank you for your time on assisting

This update also added the ability to manually OC Via bios which is what I was most interested in aswell so let’s see how far we can push this old lady 😂

Your board might have been an early model with a first release BIOS that got inadvertently included in the ones shipped with the newer box.
