The following items appear only when you set the Turbo Mode to [Enabled].

Turbo Mode Parameters

CPU Integrated VR Current Limit [Enabled]

This tiem allows the system to dynamically adjusts the CPU voltage and core frequency when enabled.

Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

CPU Internal Power Switching Frequency

Frequency Tuning Mode [Auto]

Allows you to increase or decrease the switching frequency of the internal regulator. Decrease to help consume less power or increase to help voltage stability. When this item is set to [+] or [-], the Frequency Tuning Offset appears and allows you to set its value from 0% to 6%.

CPU Internal Power Fault Control

Thermal Feedback [Auto]

Allows the CPU to take precautionary actions when the thermal conditions of the external regulator exceeds the threshold.

CPU Integrated VR Fault Management [Auto]

Allows you to prevent tripping the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator when doing over-voltage.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]

We recommend to set this item to [Disable] when overclocking.

CPU Internal Power Configuration

CPU Integrated VR Efficiency Management [Auto]

Allows you to improve power saving when the processor is in low power state. Disable this item to make the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator work in high performance at all times.

Configuration options: [Auto] [High Performance] [Balanced]

Power Decay Mode [Auto]

Allows you to enable this item to improve the power saving on the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator as the processor goes into low current state.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]

Idle Power-in Response [Auto]

Allows you to set the slew rate for the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator as it enters manual override mode.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Fast]

Idle Power-out Response [Auto]

Allows you to set the slew rate for the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator as it exits manual override mode.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Fast]

Power Current Slope [Auto]

Allows you to adjust the gradient of the high-speed active phase current balance during load transients to eliminate current imbalance, resulting from a load current oscillating near the switching frequency.

Configuration options: [Auto] [LEVEL -4] - [LEVEL 4]
