Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power support. CPU Power Thermal Control [124] A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the overclocking tolerance to enlarge the O.C. potential. Use the or keys to adjust the value. The values depend on the CPU installed. DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. 2.5.14 CPU Power Management The subitems in this menu allow you to set the CPU ratio and their features. Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology [Enabled] Allows the operating system to dynamically adjust the processor voltage and cores frequency, resulting to a decreased average power consumption and decreased average heat production. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] Turbo Mode [Enabled] Allows you to enable your core processor's speed to run faster than the base operating frequency when it is below operating power, current and temperature specification limit. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] The following items appear only when you set the Turbo Mode to [Enabled]. Turbo Mode Parameters Long Duration Package Power Limit [Auto] Allows you to limit the Turbo Ratio's time duration that exceeds the TDP (Thermal Design Power) for maximum performance. Use the or keys to adjust the value. The values range from 1W t0 4096W. Package Power Time Window [Auto] Also known as Power Limit 1, and allows you to maintain the time window for Turbo Ratio over TDP (Thermal Design Power). Use the or keys to adjust the value. The values range from 1 to 127 in seconds. Short Duration Package Power Limit [Auto] Also known as Power Limit 2, and allows you to provide rapid protection when the package power exceeds the Power Limit 1. Use the or keys to adjust the value. The values range from 1W t0 4096W. CPU Integrated VR Current Limit [Auto] Allows you to set a higher current limit to prevent frequency and power throttling when overclocking. Use the or keys to adjust the value. The values range from 0.125 to 1023.875 with a 0.125 interval. 2-18 ASUS Z87-C
