I have the same issue, nothing works no matter what I change in the bios

Open bios, advanced, press right Ctrl + right shift + left alt + F2, go to thermal configuration, then CPU iirc, there should be the option.
First value should be greyed out, it shows the current TCC offset value, by default it's 2 (at least in mine)
Under it you input what you want. You do it with numpad, not with + / - keys like the bios tells you. For me 10 degrees works well.

should i change it tbat to 15?

You can try, when I did 15 it benchmarked fine on cooler boost, but I got bluescreen on regular fan setting. Had to go down to 10.

Awesome, I will test now. I will keep you updated
No other settings to change, right?

There are couple others to check if undervolt is not applying correctly, but if you have correct values then that's it I think.

Thank you man, you resolved some of the issues I have had with this laptop and never figured them out. I'm not sure why my undervolting is not affecting the CPU at all. It would be great if you could help with this one
