CPU Graphics Ratio [Auto] [Auto] [Manual] This option allows you to automatically optimize the CPU Graphics Ratio depending on the system loading. This option allows you to set a value for an optimal CPU Graphics Ratio. Use the or keys to adjust the CPU graphics ratio. The minimum value depends on the installed CPU. 2.5.11 OC Tuner [Keep Current Settings] This item allows you to automatically overclock the CPU and DRAM frequencies and voltage for an enhanced system performance. It also accelerates the CPU graphics performance to the extreme depending on the CPU graphics loading. Configuration options: [Keep Current Settings] [Ratio First] [BCLK First] Ensure that you installed an efficient CPU fan for CPU and graphics loading before selecting either [BCLK First] or [Ratio First]. To keep the current overclocking tuner status, select [Keep Current Settings]. 2.5.12 EPU Power Saving Mode [Disabled] The 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] 2.5.13 DRAM Timing Control The subitems in this menu allow you to set the DRAM timing control features. Use the or 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. Primary Timings DRAM CAS# Latency [Auto] Configuration options: [Auto] [1] - [31] ASUS Z97-A/USB 3.1 2-21
