Ai Overclock Tuner [Auto]

This item allows you to select the CPU overclocking options to achieve the desired CPU internal frequency.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual] [XMP]

The following items appear only when you set the Ai Overclocking Tuner to [Manual] or [XMP].

Filter PLL [Auto]

Set this item to high BCLK (base clock) mode when using a very high BCLK to improve overclocking capability.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Low BCLK mode] [High BCLK mode]

BCLK Frequency [100]

This item allows you to set the BCLK (base clock) frequency to enhance the system performance. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the value. The values range from 80.0 MHz to 300.0 MHz.

We recommend you to set the value based on the CPU specification, as high BCLK frequencies may damage the CPU permanently.

Initial BCLK Frequency [Auto]

This item allows you to start overclocking the system from the initial BCLK (base clock) frequency to the assigned BCLK frequency. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the value. The value ranges depend on the value you set on BCLK Frequency.

This item allows you to set the CPU core ratio limit per core or synchronize automatically to all cores.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Sync All Cores] [Per Core]

When the CPU Core Ratio is set to [Per Core], the following items appear:

1-Core Ratio Limit [Auto]

Select [Auto] to apply the CPU default Turbo Ratio setting or manually assign a 1-Core Limit value that must be higher than or equal to the 2-Core Ratio Limit.

2-Core Ratio Limit [Auto]

Select [Auto] to apply the CPU default Turbo Ratio setting or manually assign a 2-Core Limit value that must be higher than or equal to the 3-Core Ratio Limit.

If you assign a value for 2-Core Ratio Limit, do not set the 1-Core Ratio Limit to [Auto].
