CPU Graphics Current Capability [Auto]
This item allows you to adjust the total power range for GT overclocking. A higher value
provides a wider total power range and extends the overclocking frequency range
simultaneously. Configuration options: [Auto] [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%]
Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high GT loading for extra power
support.
CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto]
This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production.
Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to
[Manual] .
Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [250]
This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Use the <+> or <‑> to adjust the value. The values range from 200 KHz to 350 KHz
with an interval of 50 KHz.
CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]
DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component’s
phase.
[T. Probe]
Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
CPU Power Phase Control [Auto]
This item allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU. Configuration options: [Auto]
[Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme]
CPU Graphics Load-Line Calibration [Auto]
Load‑line is defined by Intel VRM specification and affects GT power voltage. The GT
working voltage will decrease proportionally to GT loading. Higher levels of the load‑line
calibration can get a higher voltage and better overclocking performance, but increases the
GT and VRM thermal conditions. Select from level 1 to 8 to adjust the GT power voltage from
0% to 100%.
The actual performance boost may vary depending on the GT specification. Do not remove
the thermal module.
