GPU.DIMM Post Automatically detects and displays the information about the devices or memory installed on the PCIe and DIMM slots. The field shows N/A if there are no devices installed on the slots. External DIGI+ Power Control CPU Load-line Calibration [Auto] Load-line is defined by Intel® specification and affects CPU power voltage. The CPU working voltage decreases proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance, but increases the CPU and VRM thermal conditions. Select from levels 1 to 9 to adjust the CPU power voltage from 0% to 125%. Configuration options [Auto] [Level 1] - [Level 9] The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification. DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto] This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production. Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual] DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to [Manual]. Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [300] This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Use the or to adjust the value. The values range from 300 KHz to 500 KHz with an interval of 50 KHz. Do not remove the thermal module when the manual mode is selected. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

Automatically detects and displays the information about the devices or memory installed on
the PCIe and DIMM slots. The field shows N/A if there are no devices installed on the slots.
External DIGI+ Power Control
CPU Load-line Calibration [Auto]
Load-line is defined by Intel
®
specification and affects CPU power voltage. The CPU
working voltage decreases proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load-line calibration
could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance, but increases the CPU
and VRM thermal conditions. Select from levels 1 to 9 to adjust the CPU power voltage
from 0% to 125%.
Configuration options [Auto] [Level 1] - [Level 9]
The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification.
DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto]
This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal
production. Select [
Manual
] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient
response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to
[Manual]
.
Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [300]
This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient
response speed. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the value. The values range
from 300 KHz to 500 KHz with an interval of 50 KHz.
Do not remove the thermal module when the manual mode is selected. The thermal
conditions should be monitored.
