AMD A10 5800k Underclock for low power, x-boost for speed, ASrock mobo

[andymaxwell]

Hi All,

 

I'm very new to this whole unlocked CPU thing, so it's nice to meet you all (so to speak)

 

I wonder could you help me answer a question I have about the A10 5800k I am about to buy.

 

I would like to be able to underclock it for normal office use (save power, run cooler, don't need the extra speed etc..) then when I want to game - hit the x-boost button (on my soon to be AsRock mobo) and boost up to full speed for games.

 

Is it possible to set the Bios up to do this?
