• The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification.
• Do not remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
Refer to the software manual in the support DVD or visit the ASUS website at

Items Function description
1
CPU Load-line Calibration
It allows you to adjust the voltage settings and control the system temperature.
Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking
performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal.
2
CPU Current Capability
CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher
value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery.
3
CPU Voltage Frequency
Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and component
thermal. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.
4
CPU/NB Load Line Calibration
Set to a higher value for system performance, or to a lower value for better thermal
solution.
5
CPU/NB Current Capability
Setting CPU/NB Current Capability to a higher value increases the overclocking
frequency range of the DRAM Controller.
6
CPU Power Phase Control
Increase phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and
better thermal performance. Reduce phase number under light system loading to
increase VRM efficiency.
7
CPU Power Thermal Control
A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range, and extends the
overclocking tolerance to enlarge overclocking potential.
8
CPU Power Duty Control
CPU Power Duty Control adjusts the current of every VRM phase and the thermal
conditions of every phase component.
9
DRAM Current Capability
A higher value provides wider total power range and extends the overclocking
frequency range simultaneously.
10
DRAM Fixed Frequency Mode
Allows you to adjust the DRAM switching frequency for system stability or to
increase OC Range.
11
DRAM Power Phase Control
Select Extreme for full phase mode to increase system performance or select
Optimized for ASUS optimized phase tuning profile to increase DRAM power
efficiency.
