Advanced BIOS Features
Load Line Control
&
Enables or disables Load Line control. This item allows you to adjust Vdroop at different levels. Enabling
Load Line control may keep the CPU voltage more constant under light and heavy CPU load.
Auto
lets
the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
AMD C1E Support
&
Enables or disables the C1E CPU power-saving function in system halt state. When enabled, the power
consumption will be reduced during system halt state.
Auto
If a CPU that supports hardware C1E is installed, the BIOS will automatically enable the
±
hardware C1E function. If not, the C1E function will be disabled. (Default)
Enabled
If a CPU that supports hardware C1E is installed, the BIOS will automatically enable the
±
hardware C1E function. If not, the BIOS will enable the software C1E function.
Disabled
Disables the C1E function.
±
Virtualization
&
Virtualization allows a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions.
With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple virtual systems.
(Default: Disabled)
AMD K8 Cool&Quiet control
&
Auto
Lets the AMD Cool'n'Quiet driver dynamically adjust the CPU clock and VID to reduce
±
heat output from your computer and its power consumption. (Default)
Disabled
Disables this function.
±
CPU Unlock
&
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether unlock hidden CPU cores. (Default: Disabled)
CPU core Control
&
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to manually enable/disable CPU Core 1/2/3/4/5.
Auto
Lets the BIOS to enable all CPU cores (number of cores available depends on the CPU
±
being used). (Default)
Manual
Allows you to individually enable/disable CPU Core 1/2/3/4/5.
±
(Note)
This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature.
