2.2.6 Onboard switches
Onboard switches allow you to ne-tune performance when working on a bare
or open-case system. This is ideal for overclockers and gamers who continually
change settings to enhance system performance.

power source indicating that you should shut down the system and unplug the
power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard component. The
