CPU Frequency (MHz) Use this option to adjust CPU frequency. PCIE Frequency (MHz) Use this option to adjust PCIE frequency. Spread Spectrum This item should always be [Auto] for better system stability. Boot Failure Guard Enable or disable the feature of Boot Failure Guard. Cool 'n' Quiet Use this item to enable or disable AMD's Cool 'n' QuietTM technology. The default value is [Auto]. Configuration options: [Auto], [Enabled] and [Disabled]. If you install Windows® VistaTM and want to enable this function, please set this item to [Enabled]. Please note that enabling this function may reduce CPU voltage and memory frequency, and lead to system stability or compatibility issue with some memory modules or power supplies. Please set this item to [Disable] if above issue occurs.
