CPU Power Phase Control
Allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU.
[Auto] Automatically selects the power phase control.
[Standard] The number of active phases is controlled by the CPU.
[Extreme] Sets full phase mode.
DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Extreme]. The thermal
conditions should be monitored.
The following items appear only when using the onboard graphics.
CPU Graphics Load-line Calibration
The load-line is defined by the Intel VRM specification and affects the CPU Graphics
power voltage. The CPU Graphics working voltage will decrease proportionally
depending on the CPU Graphics loading. Higher levels of the load-line calibration
can get a higher voltage and a better overclocking performance but increase the CPU
Graphics and VRM thermal production. Select from level 1 to 7 to adjust the CPU
Graphics power voltage from 100% to 0%.
Configuration options [Auto] [Level 1] [Level 2] [Level 3] [Level 4:Recommended for
OC] [Level 5] [Level 6] [Level 7]
Boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU Graphics specification. DO NOT
remove the thermal module.
CPU Graphics VRM Switching Frequency
The switching frequency will affect the CPU Graphics transient response speed
and the component thermal production. Select manual mode to configure a higher
frequency to get a quicker transient response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Manual]. The thermal
conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when CPU Graphics VRM Switching Frequency is set
to [Manual].
Fixed CPU Graphics Switching Frequency(KHz)
The switching frequency will affect the CPU Graphics transient response speed and
the component thermal production. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the value. The values
range from 250 KHz to 500 KHz with an interval of 50 KHz.
Boot Voltages
CPU Core/Cache Boot Voltage
Allows you to set the CPU voltage at initial boot up. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the
value. The values range from 0.600V to 1.700V with an interval of 0.005V.
Configuration options: [Auto] [0.60000] - [1.70000]
