CPU Power Phase Control [Optimized]
Phase number is the number of working VRM phase. Increase the phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reduce the phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency.
[Standard] | Proceeds to phase control depending on the CPU loading. |
[Optimized] | Loads the ASUS optimized phase tuning profile. |
[Extreme] | Proceeds to the full phase mode. |
[Manual Adjustment] | Allows manual adjustment. |
CPU Voltage Frequency [Auto]
Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and thermal condition. Setting a higher frequency gets a faster transient response.
[Auto] | Allows you to enable or disable the Spread Spectrum item. |
[Manual] | Allows you to manually set the frequency with a 10k Hz interval. |
VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled]
This item appears only when you set the CPU Voltage Frequency item to [Auto] and allows you to enable the spread spectrum to enhance system stability.
VRM Fixed Frequency Mode [xxx]
This item appears only when you set the CPU Voltage Frequency item to [Manual] and allows you to set a fixed VRM frequency. Use the <+> and
CPU Power Duty Control [T-Probe]
Maintains the VRM thermal balance. | |
[Extreme] | Maintains the VRM current balance. |
CPU Power Thermal Control [125]
A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the overclocking tolerance to enlarge the O.C. potential. Use the <+> and
DRAM Current Capability [100%]
A higher value brings a wider total power range, and extends the overclocking range simultaneously. Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]
DRAM Voltage Frequency [Auto]
Allows you to adjust the DRAM switching frequency. Assign a fixed high DRAM frequency to increase the O.C. range, or a low DRAM frequency for a better system stability. Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
