2.4.1 Memory Frequency [Auto]
Allows you to set the memory operating frequency. Conguration options: [Auto] [DDR3-
1066MHz] [DDR3-1333MHz] [DDR3-1600MHz]
Selecting a very high memory frequency may cause the system to become unstable! If this
happens, revert to the default setting.
2.4.2 iGPU Max. Frequency [xxx]
Allows you to set the iGPU maximum frequency. The values range from xxxxMHz (by CPU)
to 3000MHz with a 50MHz interval. Use <+>/<-> to adjust the value.
2.4.3 GPU Boost [OK]
[OK] Select [OK] to automatically optimize the iGPU frequency.
[Cancel] Select [Cancel] to use a xed iGPU frequency.

model.

Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology [Enabled]

Allows you to enable or disable the Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep Technology (EIST).
[Disabled] Disables this function.
[Enabled] The operating system dynamically adjusts the processor voltage and
core frequency which may result in decreased average consumption and
decreased average heat production.

Turbo Mode [Enabled]

This item appears only when you set the previous item to [Enabled].
[Enabled] Allows processor cores to run faster than marked frequency in specic
conditions.
[Disabled] Disables this function.
