T5-0 handoff for Kamil (Linear / WhatsApp paste)

Prepared 27 October 2026. Local only. Not sent.

Tracker: seo-2026-10-02 step T5-0. Due 27 Oct. Note: publish the section and repoint the /guides card by 27 Oct.

Som cannot publish to hypertune.gg. Leave T5-0 unticked until the live checks below pass.

Paste-ready Linear / Kamil note

Kamil, T5-0 is ready for you to publish on hypertune.gg.

Review page (full brief + research): https://hypertune-unsent-notes.pages.dev/t5-vbs-section
Source file: week-1/T5-xtu-vbs-section.md (section 2 = paste copy)

1) Add the VBS section to the main guide
Page: https://hypertune.gg/guides/xtu-bios
Anchor id on the H2: xtu-with-vbs
Placement: after the final step card ("Save settings and reboot"), outside the brand tabs, before "Need help? Contact Support"
Optional sidebar: add "Using VBS" after "Save & exit", linking to #xtu-with-vbs

Paste only the "Publish now" block from the review page (H2 through the first trade-off paragraph). Do not paste the "Hold until Austin confirms" paragraph yet. Do not invent Windows steps for turning VBS off.

Exact H2:
What should I change in these BIOS steps if I keep VBS turned on?

Brand list in the section (matches live step numbers as of 27 Oct):
- ASRock step 3: CPU Configuration > Undervolt Protection > Enabled
- ASUS step 5: Tweaker's Paradise > Undervolt Protection on
- GIGABYTE step 3: Advanced CPU Settings > Under Voltage Protection > Enabled
- MSI step 5: Advanced CPU Configuration > CPU Under Voltage Protection > Enabled

Leave the inline [Austin to confirm] tag on the Core Isolation sentence until Austin clears it, or drop that one sentence if you prefer a clean first ship.

2) Repoint the /guides card
Page: https://hypertune.gg/guides
Card: "Intel XTU Guide with VBS" (fourth card)
Change href from /guides/xtu-bios-vbs to /guides/xtu-bios#xtu-with-vbs
Title can stay. Optional later: retitle to "Intel XTU with VBS turned on" so visitors know it opens a section of the main guide.

Done when live checks pass:
- https://hypertune.gg/guides/xtu-bios#xtu-with-vbs shows the new H2
- https://hypertune.gg/guides "Intel XTU Guide with VBS" card opens that anchor

Related, not this ticket: T5-1 canonical on /guides/xtu-bios-vbs + sitemap (Austin / Linear COM-619).

Why T5-0 stays unticked

Done-when needs the section live on hypertune.gg and the /guides card repointed. That publish is Kamil's. Som's part (section copy, link map, review page, this handoff) is ready.
