Auto Disable PCI/PCI-E Frequency

When set to [Enabled], the system will remove (turn off) clocks from empty PCI and PCI-E slots to minimize the electromagnetic interference (EMI).

CPU VDD Voltage (V), CPU-NB VDD Voltage (V), NB Voltage (V), HT Link Voltage (V)

These items are used to adjust the voltage of CPU, Memory and chipset.

Spread Spectrum

When the motherboard’s clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of the pulses create EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). The Spread Spectrum func- tion reduces the EMI generated by modulating the pulses so that the spikes of the pulses are reduced to flatter curves. If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at Disabled for optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, set to Enabled for EMI reduction. Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked proces- sor to lock up.

Important

*If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at [Disabled] for optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, select the value of Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction.

*The greater the Spread Spectrum value is, the greater the EMI is reduced, and the system will become less stable. For the most suitable Spread Spectrum value, please consult your local EMI regulation.

*Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock up.
