Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch (Available when supported by the CPU)

The CPU fetches the cache line for 64 bytes if this option is set to Disabled. The CPU fetches both cache lines for 128 bytes as comprised if Enabled.

Intel® Virtualization Technology (Available when supported by the CPU)

Select Enabled to use the feature of Virtualization Technology to allow one platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions, creat- ing multiple "virtual" systems in one physical computer. The options are Enabled and Disabled. Note: If there is any change to this setting, you will need to power off and restart the system for the change to take effect. Please refer to Intel’s web site for detailed information.

Execute-Disable Bit Capability (Available when supported by the OS and the CPU)

Set to Enabled to enable the Execute Disable Bit which will allow the processor to designate areas in the system memory where an application code can execute and where it cannot, thus preventing a worm or a virus from flooding illegal codes to overwhelm the processor or damage the system during an attack. The default is Enabled. (Refer to Intel and Microsoft Web Sites for more information.)

Intel® AES-NI

Set to Enabled to use the processor's Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) feature. The options are Enabled and Disabled.

Intel® Hyper Threading Technology

Set to Enabled to use the processor's Hyper Threading Technology feature. The options are Enabled and Disabled.

Active Processor Cores

Set to Enabled to use a processor's Second Core and beyond. (Please refer to Intel's web site for more information.) The options are All, 1, 2 and 3.

Power Technology

This feature determines what power-saving scheme the motherboard uses. The options are Disabled, Energy Efficient and Custom. If Custom is selected, the fol- lowing options become available:

EIST

EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) allows the system to automati- cally adjust processor voltage and core frequency in an effort to reduce power consumption and heat dissipation. Please refer to Intel’s web site for detailed information. The options are Disabled and Enabled.
