VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled]
This item allows to enhance the system stability.
Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
Active Frequency Mode [Disabled]
This item allows to enhance the power saving condition of your system.
Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
CPU Power Phase Control [Auto]
This item allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase
Response]
The following item appears only when you set the CPU Power Phase Control to [Power
Phase Response] .
Power Phase Response [Fast]
This item allows you to set a faster phase response for the CPU to
increase system performance or to slower phase response to decrease
DRAM power efficiency. Configuration options: [Ultra Fast] [Fast] [Medium]
[Regular]
CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]
DIGI + VRM Duty Control adjusts the current of every VRM phase and the thermal
conditions of every phase component.
[T. Probe]
Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
CPU Current Capability [Auto]
This item provides a total power range for CPU overclocking. A higher value setting
provides higher power consumption delivery and extends the overclocking frequency
range simultaneously. Configuration options: [Auto] [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]
[140%]
CPU Power Thermal Control [120]
A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the
overclocking tolerance to enlarge the overclocking potential. Use the <+> or <-> keys
to adjust the value. The values depend on the CPU installed.
DRAM Current Capability [100%]
This item adjusts the total power range for DRAM overclocking. Set a higher value
to provide a wider total power range and extends the overclocking frequency range
simultaneously. Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%]
DRAM Switching Frequency [Auto]
This item affects the overclocking range and system stability. Set this item to [Manual]
to manually set a fixed DRAM switching frequency for an increased overclocking range
or enhanced system stability.
The following item appears only when you set the DRAM Switching Frequency to [Manual] .
