tion and heat dissipation. Please refer to Intel’s web site for detailed information. The options are Disable: Disable GV3 and Enable: Enable GV3.

Intel® TurboMode Tech (Available if Intel® EIST technology is Enabled)

This feature allows processor cores to run faster than marked frequency in specific conditions. The options are Disabled and Enabled.

Intel Turbo Boost Configuration

Turbo Ratio Limit Program

Select Enabled to set the processor's clock ratio in relation to the bus speed. The options are Enabled and Disabled. The default value depends on the type of CPU installed. (For example, the values shown below indicate that an Intel® Core™ i7 processor 965 Extreme Edition is installed.)

1 - Core Ratio Limit

This increases (multiplies) the processor's core 1 clock speed in relation to the bus speed. The default setting is 26. Press "+" or "-" on your keyboard to change this value.

2 ~ 3 - Core Ratio Limit

This increases the processor's core 2~3 clock speeds in relation to the bus speed. The default setting is 25. Press "+" or "-" on your keyboard to change this value.

TDC Limit Override

This option will override the system's default electrical current setting for the processor. The options are Enabled and Disabled.

TDC Limit Value

This option sets the processor's electrical current value. The default setting is

880.Press "+" or "-" on your keyboard to change this value.

TDP Limit Override

Select Enabled to override the default power setting for the processor. The op- tions are Enabled and Disabled.

TDP Limit Value

Use this option to set the processor's power value. The default setting is 1040. Press "+" or "-" on your keyboard to change this value.

C1E Support

Select Enabled to use the "Enhanced Halt State" feature. C1E significantly reduces the CPU's power consumption by reducing the CPU's clock cycle and voltage during a "Halt State." The options are Disabled and Enabled.
