QPI Confi guration

Current QPI Link Speed

This item displays the speed of the QPI Link.

Current QPI Link Frequency 

This item displays the frequency of the QPI Link.

QPI (Quick Path Interconnect) Link Speed Mode

Use this feature to select data transfer speed for QPI Link connections. The 

options are 

Fast

 and Slow.

QPI Link Frequency Select

Use this feature to select the desired QPI frequency. The options are 

Auto

, 6.4 

GT/s, 7.2 GT/s, and 8.0 GT/s.

DIMM Confi guration

Current Memory Mode

This item displays the current memory mode.

Current Memory Speed

This item displays the current memory speed.

Mirroring

This item displays if memory mirroring is supported by the motherboard. Memory 

mirroring creates a duplicate copy of the data stored in the memory to enhance 

data security.

Sparing

This item displays if memory sparing can be supported by the motherboard. 

Memory sparing enhances system reliability, availability, and serviceability.

DIMM Information

The status of the memory modules will be displayed as detected by the BIOS.

Memory Mode

When Independent is selected, all DIMMs are available to the operating system. 

When Mirroring is selected, the motherboard maintains two identical copies of all 

data in memory for data backup. When Lockstep is selected, the motherboard 

uses two areas of memory to run the same set of operations in parallel. The 

options are 

Independent

, Mirroring, Lock step and Sparing.
