Yes there is no Speed Shift or AVX options in z170 Extreme 4 too. I use it with Kaby Lake 7600k and there is no overclock presets too. On some options there are no voltage or current indications too so i dont know what is the state of the option im tweaking. Many options are on AUTO but most of them are just DEFAULT (set on specific value) which is very different from AUTO (adjusting according other options). I know there are Intel 200 and Ryzen 300 series but PLEASE we need more support for z170 & KABY LAKE.
Im was on v.7.30 but recently i flashed to 7.20 which is the most recent bios version but there is very little change. For options its identical to previous version but I now can start Windows10 on 5.3ghz but unstable and RAM overclock on is worse. BCLK overclock is not good too. |

well sadly for Z170M Extreme4 users, there is no such option in BIOS. hopefully they'll add it within next update.
Can confirm that tho, both ASUS Z170m plus and Gigabyte Z170m D3h have Intel SpeedShift settings available. Edited by charredwee - 08 Feb 2017 at 2:50am |

I have an asrock oc formula z170 bios 7.40 and I enabled it you can find it under advance option.Currently I am using speedshift and speedstep with balance power plan in windows.I can lower my vcore as speedshift ramps up vcore and frequency when needed.My intel xtu benchmark on 4.6ghz is 1585 which is better than 4.8ghz benchmark

Yes you are right, Speed Shift is a new option in Skylake and refined in Kaby Lake processors. When enabled, it causes the change from a low processor speed when Speed Step is enabled (800MHz), and from a higher C State power saving level (C6 or C7 for example) to a higher processor speed, and the full on, C0 state.
Intel did not publicize Speed Shift very much when Skylake processors were released, and its full implementation will not be realized until Kaby Lake processors are released. Intel does not include Speed Shift in the list of processor features (Advanced Technologies) for Skylake processors, or currently for the few Kaby Lake mobile processors that are available only from OEM manufactures in laptop PCs. What UEFI/BIOS version are you using now? I suggest updating to one of the versions that supports Kaby Lake, 7.00 in the main BIOS download page, or 7.10 in the Beta Zone. Speed Shift should be in the OC Tweaker, CPU Configuration screen, added in one of those versions. |

It available on all SKYLAKE cpu cause it goes hand and hand with speedstep, it make the shift in cpu much much faster. And it is bios setting, Even Asus recently updated there bios the z170 (3007) to have it enabled by default

Please, when posing questions like this know what you speak of. Intel's Speed Shift is not an option addressed by or in the BIOS. But instead it is "enabled" in/with Windows 10. |
