Override BIOS limitation on CPU frequency

Similar to previous questions (example 1, example 2), the BIOS is limiting my CPU frequency because of a bad connection with the center pin of the adapter on my Dell Precision M5520 (which leads to BIOS warning: "The AC power adapter wattage and type cannot be determined. The battery may not charge. The system will adjust the performance to match the power available."). Indeed the computer is very slow and the battery won't charge.

I believe the computer actually is getting enough power, so I'd like to override the BIOS limitation.

I tried the answers from the above example questions, but they did not work. Furthermore, I don't have a bios_limit file (search entire disk).

What else can I do to override the BIOS?

(I've ordered a replacement charging jack, but want to do this in the meantime)

Ok, I was able to get it to work following this answer.

~ $ lscpu | grep MHz
CPU MHz:             2934.500

While in general, overriding the BIOS does seem like a bad idea, in this case this whole problem seems to have been caused Dell's tactic to prevent non-OEM adapters. I know the AC jack can't read the center pin because I see that part is broken and I have no reason to think there's anything wrong with the actual power supplied (delivered through the inner and outer side of the charger's outer tube).

The frequency fluctuates. I seem to remember this command printing the max MHz for CPU MHz before my AC power jack's center pin receptor broke. I do notice that if you disable Intel SpeedStep in the BIOS, then it will run at the full frequency, but I'm guessing that's not a great idea since the frequency fluctuating is the whole point of that.
