CPU Power Phase Control [Auto] This item allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU. Configuration options: [Auto] [Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase Response] DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Power Phase Response]. The thermal conditions should be monitored. CPU Power Thermal Control [115] Higher temperature provides a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the overclocking tolerance to enlarge the overclocking potential. Configuration options: [115] - [136] DO NOT remove the thermal module. 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. Configuration options: [Optimized] [Extreme] DRAM 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 DRAM Switching Frequency to [Manual]. Fixed DRAM 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.
