Unlike other dynamic overclocking techniques, AI NOS™ reacts much faster to satisfy your need for speed. See pages 4-16 and 5-21 for details. Precision Tweaker This feature allows you to fine tune the CPU/memory voltage and gradually increase the memory Front Side Bus (FSB) and PCI Express frequency at 1MHz increment to achieve maximum system performance. See pages 4-16 to 4-18 for details. C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall) The C.P.R. feature of the motherboard BIOS allows automatic re-setting to the BIOS default settings in case the system hangs due to overclocking. When the system hangs due to overclocking, C.P.R. eliminates the need to open the system chassis and clear the RTC data. Simply shut down and reboot the system, and the BIOS automatically restores the CPU default setting for each parameter. Due to the chipset behavior, AC power off is required before using C.P.R. function. 1- Chapter 1: Product Introduction
