&
No. of CPU Cores Enabled
Allows you to select the number of CPU cores to enable in an Intel
®
multi-core CPU (the number of CPU
cores may vary by CPU). Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Intel(R) Speed Shift Technology (Intel
®
Speed Shift Technology)
(Note)
Enables or disables Intel
®
Speed Shift Technology. Enabling this feature allows the processor to ramp up
its operating frequency more quickly and then improves the system responsiveness. (Default: Enabled)
&
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)
&
Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to enable the Intel
®
CPU Turbo Boost technology.
Auto
lets the BIOS
automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Intel(R) Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0
(Note)
Enables or disables Intel
®
Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0. Intel
®
Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 allows
the system to identify the processor's best performance core and lets you manually direct the most critical
workloads to it. You can even adjust the frequency of each core individually for performance optimization.
(Default: Enabled)
&
CPU Flex Ratio Override
Enables or disables the CPU Flex Ratio. The maximum CPU clock ratio will be based on the
CPU Flex
Ratio Settings
value if
CPU Clock Ratio
is set to
Auto
. (Default: Disabled)
&
CPU Flex Ratio Settings
Allows you to set the CPU Flex Ratio. The adjustable range may vary by CPU.
&
Frequency Clipping TVB
(Note)
Allows you to enable or disable automatic CPU frequency reduction initiated by Thermal Velocity Boost.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Voltage reduction initiated TVB
(Note)
Allows you to enable or disable automatic CPU voltage reduction initiated by Thermal Velocity Boost.
Auto
lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
(Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about
