MSR 0xE2 is quite typically locked by PC OEMs... aka "CFG lock".
In your case (Ivy hardware in your profile), AsusAICPUPM=true takes care of the problem by patching AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext.
 
Can I patch manually on my DSDT without checked AsusAICPUPM=True?

It is not an ACPI issue. Issue is locked MSR 0xE2 due to BIOS initialization (it is a write-once lock, not possible to unlock).
Avoiding locked MSR 0xE2 requires patched/hacked BIOS.
 
Thank you for your respond

Rehabman if there is an option do disable CFG Lock in the bios is it advisable to disable it?
