The Intel SpeedStep technology allows you to set the performance level of the
microprocessor whether the computer is running on battery or AC power. This
field will appear after you installed the CPU which support speedstep technology.
Setting options: [Enabled], [Disabled].
Delay Prior to Thermal
When the CPU temperature reaches a factory preset level, a thermal monitoring
mechanism will be enabled following the appropriate timing delay specified in
this field.
With the thermal monitoring enabled, clock modulation controlled by the
processor
’
s internal thermal sensor is also activated to keep the processor
within allowable temperature limit.
Setting options: [4 Min], [8 Min], [16 Min], [32
Min].
Thermal Management
When CPU
’
s temperature is higher than the predefined thermal level, the thermal
monitoring mechanism will slow down the CPU speed to the percentage speci-
fied in the field. Setting options: [Thermal Monitor 1], [Thermal Monitor 2]
Execute Disable Bit
Excute Bit Support function is designed for memory buffer overflow protection,
it can prevent viruses from proliferating. Setting options: [Enabled], [Disabled].
