1CPU Load-line Calibration

It allows you to adjust the voltage settings and control the system temperature. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal conditions.

2CPU Current Capability

CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery.

3CPU Voltage Frequency

Switching frequency affects the VRM transient response and thermal components. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.

4CPU Power Phase Control

Increase phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reduce phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency.

5CPU/NB Load-line Calibration

Set to a higher value for system performance, or to a lower value for better thermal solution.
