CPU Graphics [Auto] The switching frequency will affect the GT transient response speed and the component thermal production. 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 Graphics to [Manual]. CPU Graphics Frequency (KHz) [500] 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 600 KHz with an interval of 50 KHz. GT Power Phase Control [Auto] This item allows you to set the power phase control of the GT. Configuration options: [Auto] [Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase Response] DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Power Phase Response] or [Extreme]. The thermal conditions should be monitored. DRAM Current Capability [100%] This item provides a total power range for DRAM overclocking. A higher value setting provides higher power consumption delivery and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] Configure higher values when overclocking or under a high CPU loading for extra power support. DRAM Power Phase Control [Extreme] This item allows you to set the power phase control of the DRAM.
