EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) Conventional Intel SpeedStep Technology switches both voltage and frequency in tandem between high and low levels in response to processor load. Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled. Turbo Mode When this feature is enabled, the processor can dynamically overclock one or two of its four processing cores to improve performance with applications that are not multi-threaded or optimized for quad-core processors. Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled. CPU C3/C6 Report (Note) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3/C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The C3/C6 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. Options available for C3 Report: ACPI C2/ACPI C3/Disabled. Default setting is Disabled. Options available for C6 Report: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled. CPU C7 Report (Note) Allows you to enable or disable the CPU C7 (ACPI C3) report. Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled. Package C State Limit Configure state for the C-State package limit. Options available: C0/C1/C6/C7/No Limit. Default setting is No Limit. BIOS Setup - 61 -
