Thermal Management/CPU VRM Overheat
When the CPU reaches 700 C and above (Overheat), the CPU will go into throttling state. CPU Voltage will decrease to reduce CPU power consumption. When the CPU temperature reaches 780 C (*Default) and above, the Overheat LED and the Alarm Buzzer will be turned on in addition to the slowing down of the CPU. Once the CPU temperature returns to normal, the CPU voltage will return to normal as well, allowing the CPU to run at maximum speed.
VRM Protection
When the CPU VRM temperature reaches the threshold preset by the user in the BIOS, the system will go into TM (Thermal Management) mode. The CPU will slow down and the VRM current will drop to prevent the VRM from overheating. (The settings are: 880C, *980C, 1080C.) (*Default)

Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator
When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the CPU will
