5.1.3 C-States and Max C-States
C-States is a power-saving technique implemented in modern Intel processors. It shuts
down the clock signals and power for idle logic units inside the CPU to save the energy
consumed. The trade-off, however, is a longer latency for CPU to wake up and be 100%
operational. Depending on your application, you can configure these options to have higher
performance (disable
“
C-States
”
) or lower power-consumption (enable
“
C-States
”
and set
“
Max C-States
”
to C6/C7).
To set C-States and Enhanced C-States:
1. When
Nuvo-2400
boots up, press F2 to enter BIOS setup utility.
2. Go to
[Power] / [Advanced CPU Control]
.
3. Enable/disable the
[C-States]
option according to your application.
4. Configure the
[Max C-States]
option according to your application.
