CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]

[T.Probe]

Maintains the VRM thermal balance.

[Extreme]

Maintains the VRM current balance.

CPU Current Capability [Auto]

This item provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher value brings a wider total power range and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%] [150%] [OCP Disable]

VRM Protection Threshold [Default]

This item allows you to set the VRM protection threshold over temperature protection. Configuration options: [Default] [Higher]

CPU Power Thermal Control [130]

A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the overclocking tolerance to enlarge the O.C. potential. Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 130 to 151.

DO NOT remove the thermal module while changing the DIGI+ VRM related parameters. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

DRAM Current Capability [100%]

Setting a higher value brings a wider total power range and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously.

Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]

DRAM Voltage Frequency [Auto]

This item allows you to adjust the DRAM switching frequency. Assign a fixed high DRAM frequency to increase O.C range or a lower DRAM frequency for better system stability.

Configuration options: [Auto] [manual]

DRAM Fixed Frequency Mode

This item only appears when you set the DRAM Voltage Frequency to [Manual]. It allows you to assign a fixed high DRAM frequency to increase the overclocking range or set to a low DRAM frequency for a better system stability. The values range from 300KHz to 500KHz.

DRAM Power Phase control [Auto]

[Auto]

Allows you to set the default DRAM power phase control settings.

[Optimized]

Allows you to set ASUS optimized phase tuning profile.

[Extreme]

Allows you to set the Full phase mode.
