C3 State Support
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption.
The C3 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
C6/C7 State Support
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6/C7 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption.
The C6/C7 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C3.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
C8 State Support
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C8 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU
core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The
C8 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C6/C7.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
C10 State Support
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C10 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption.
The C10 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C8.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Package C State Limit
(Note)
Allows you to specify the C-state limit for the processor.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting.
(Default: Auto)
&
CPU Thermal Monitor
(Note)
Enables or disables Intel
®
Thermal Monitor function, a CPU overheating protection function. When enabled,
the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced when the CPU is overheated.
Auto
lets the BIOS
automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Ring to Core offset (Down Bin)
Allows you to determine whether to disable the CPU Ring ratio auto-down function.
Auto
lets the BIOS
automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
CPU EIST Function
(Note)
Enables or disables Enhanced Intel
®
Speed Step Technology (EIST). Depending on CPU loading, Intel
®
EIST
technology can dynamically and effectively lower the CPU voltage and core frequency to decrease average power
consumption and heat production.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Race To Halt (RTH)
(Note)
/Energy Efficient Turbo
(Note)
Enables or disables the CPU power saving related settings.
&
Voltage Optimization
Allows you to determine whether to enable voltage optimization to reduce power consumption. (Default:
Auto)
&
Hardware Prefetcher
Allows you to determine whether to enable hardware prefetcher to prefetch data and instructions from the
memory into the cache. (Default: Auto)
&
Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch
Allows you to determine whether to enable the adjacent cache line prefetch mechanism that lets the
processor retrieve the requested cache line as well as the subsequent cache line. (Default: Auto)
(Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about
