GPU.DIMM Post

Automatically detects and displays the information about the devices or memory installed on the PCIe and DIMM slots. The field shows N/A if there are no devices installed on the slots.

CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]

Load-line is defined by Intel® VRM specification and affects CPU power voltage. The CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal conditions.

Select from Level 1 to Level 8 to adjust CPU power voltage from 0% to 100%.

• The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification.

• DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions must be monitored.

CPU Voltage Frequency [Auto]

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

Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]

DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Manual]. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

The following items appear only when you set the CPU Voltage Frequency to [Auto].

VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled]

Enable the VRM Spread Spectrum to enhance system stability.

Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

Active Frequency Mode [Disabled]

Enable the Active Frequency Mode for an enhanced power saving condition.

Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

The following item appears only when you set the CPU Voltage Frequency to [Manual].

CPU Fixed Frequency [XXX]

This item allows you to set a fixed CPU frequency. Use the <+> or <-> keys

to adjust the valinterval.

VCCIN MOS Volt Control [Auto]

This is the driving voltage for the MOSFET on the VCCIN Rail.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual] [Active VGD]
