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 specific

 

conditions.

[Disabled]

Disables this function.

 

The following three items appear only when you set both the Enhanced Intel SpeedStep

 

Technology and Turbo Mode items to [Enabled].

Long Duration Power Limit [Auto]

Allows you to limit the turbo ratio’s long duration power.

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value.

Long Duration Maintained [Auto]

Allows you to maintain the turbo ratio’s long duration power.

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value.

Short Duration Power Limit [Auto]

Allows you to limit the turbo ratio’s long duration power.

Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value.

Primary Plane Current Limit [Auto]

Maximum instantaneous current allowed at any given time for CPU cores Use <+> and <-> key to adjust the value at 0.125A increment. .

Secondary Plane Current Limit [Auto]

Maximum instantaneous current allowed at any given time for Internal Graphics cores. Use <+> and <-> key to adjust the value at 0.125A increment.

CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]

Load-line is defined by Intel VRM specifications, and affects CPU voltage. The CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally to CPU loading. Higher value gets a higher voltage, and a better overclocking performance, but increases the CPU and VRM thermal conditions.

This item allows you to adjust the voltage range from the following percentages to boost the system performance: 0% (Regular), 25% (Medium), 50% (High), 75% (Ultra High) and 100% (Extreme). Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [High] [Ultra High] [Extreme]

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