CPU Graphics Load-Line Calibration
Load-line is dened by Intel VRM specication and affects the GT power
voltage. The GT working voltage will decrease proportionally depending on
the GT loading. Higher levels of the load-line calibration can get a higher
voltage and a better overclocking performance but increases the GT and
VRM thermal. Select from level 1 to 7 to adjust the GT power voltage from
0% to 100%. Conguration options: [Auto] [Level 1] [Level 2] [Level 3] [Level
4] [Level 5] [Level 6] [Level 7]
NOTE: The boosted performance may vary depending on the GT specication. Do not
remove the thermal module.
3.3.8 Internal CPU Power Management
The subitems in this menu allow you to set the CPU ratio and features.
Intel(R) SpeedStep(tm)
Allows the operating system to dynamically adjust the processor voltage and
cores frequency to decrease the average power consumption and decrease
average heat production.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Enabled] [Disabled]
Turbo Mode
Allows you to enable your processor cores to run faster than the base
operating frequency when it is below power, current and specication limit.
Conguration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
Turbo Mode Parameters
NOTE: The following items appear only when you set the Turbo Mode to [Enabled].
Long Duration Package Power Limit
As know as the power limit 1 in Watts. The default value will be the TDP
(thermal design power). The turbo ratio can be maintained for a duration to
exceed the TDP for the maximum system performance.
Conguration options: [Auto] [1] - [4095]
Package Power Time Window
As know as the power limit 1 in seconds. The value indicates the
maintained duration for the turbo ratio to exceed TDP (thermal design
power).
Conguration options: [Auto] [1] - [127]
Short Duration Package Power Limit
Also know as the power limit 2 in Watts. It is the second power limit to
provide a rapid protection when the package power exceed power limit
1. The default setting is 1.25 times the power limit 1. According to Intel,
the platform must be capable of supporting the duration for up to 10 msec
when the turbo ratio exceeds the power limit 2.
Conguration options: [Auto]
