[Power] Optimization is strongly toward energy efficiency, even at the expense of performance. Figure 43. Power & Performance Screen Screen Field Descriptions: 1. CPU Power and Performance Policy Option Values: Performance Balanced Performance Balanced Power Power Help Text: Allows the user to set an overall power and performance policy for the system, and when changed will modify a selected list of options to achieve the policy. These options are still changeable outside of the policy, but do reflect the changes that the policy makes when a new policy is selected. Comments: Choosing one of these four Power and Performance Profiles implements a number of changes in BIOS settings, both visible settings in the Setup screens and non-visible internal settings. Back to [Power & Performance Screen] - [Advanced Screen] 12.2.2.3 Memory Configuration The Memory Configuration screen allows the user to view details about the DDR3 DIMMs that are installed as system memory, and alter BIOS Memory Configuration settings where appropriate. For S1400, S1600, S2400, S2600, and S4600 series boards this screen shows memory system information, has options to select, and allows the user to select the "Configure Memory RAS and Performance" screen for further system memory information and configuration. This screen differs somewhat between different boards which have different memory configurations. Some boards have one processor socket and fewer DIMMs, while other boards have two sockets or four sockets, more DIMMs, and the boards may have RAS and Performance options if configured for them Revision 1.1 129 Intel order number G24881-004
