Page 95 highlights

External DIGI+ Power Control CPU Load-line Calibration [Auto] Load-line is defined by Intel® specification and affects CPU power voltage. The CPU working voltage decreases proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance, but increases the CPU and VRM thermal conditions. Select from levels 1 to 9 to adjust the CPU power voltage from 0% to 125%. Configuration options [Auto] [Level 1] - [Level 9] The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification. DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto] This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production. Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual] DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to [Manual]. Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [300] This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Use the or to adjust the value. The values range from 300 KHz to 500 KHz with an interval of 50 KHz. Do not remove the thermal module when the manual mode is selected. The thermal conditions should be monitored. The following item appears only when the CPU VRM Switching Frequency is set to [Auto]. VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled] This item allows to enhance the system stability. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] CPU Power Phase Control [Auto] This item allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU. Configuration options: [Auto] [Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Power Phase Response]. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
