2.5.8 EPU Power Saving Mode [Disabled] ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit) sets the CPU in its minimum power consumption settings. Enable this item to set lower CPU VCCIN and Vcore voltages and achieve the best energy saving condition. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] 2.5.9 CPU SVID Support [Auto] Disabling SVID Support stops the processor from commmunicating with the external voltage regulator. Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled] 2.5.10 DRAM Timing Control The subitems in this menu allow you to set the DRAM timing control features. Use the and keys to adjust the value. To restore the default setting, type [auto] using the keyboard and press the key. Changing the values in this menu may cause the system to become unstable! If this happens, revert to the default settings. 2.5.11 DIGI+ VRM CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto] Load-line is defined by Intel VRM specification and affects the CPU power voltage. The CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally depending on the CPU loading. Higher levels of the load-line calibration can get a higher voltage and a better overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal. Configuration options: [Auto] [Level 1-8] The boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU specification. Do not remove the thermal module. CPU Current Capability [Auto] Allows you to configure the total power range, and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. Configuration options: [Auto] [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%] Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power support. 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]. ASUS Z170M-PLUS 2-23
