Load High Performance/BIOS Setup Defaults
The two options on the main menu allow users to restore all of the BIOS
settings to High Performance defaults or BIOS Setup defaults. The High Per-
formance Defaults are the default values set by the mainboard manufacturer
for the best system performance but probably will cause a stability issue. The
BIOS Setup Defaults are the default values also set by the mainboard manufac-
turer for stable performance of the mainboard.
When you select Load High Performance Defaults, a message as below appears:
Pressing ‘Y’ loads the default BIOS values that enable the best system
performance but may lead to a stability issue.
The option is for power or overclocking users only
. Use of high
performance defaults will tighten most timings to increase the sys-
tem performance. Therefore, a high-end system configuration is a
must, which means you need high-quality VGA adapter, RAM and
so on.
We don’t recommend that users should apply the high
performance defaults in their regular systems.
Otherwise, the sys-
tem may become unstable or even crash. If the system crashes or
hangs after enabling the feature, please CLEAR CMOS DATA to
resolve the problem. For more information, refer to “Clear CMOS
Jumper:JBAT1” in Chapter 2.
