CPU core Control, Core C6 State, HPC Mode, APM AMD Application Power Management

Page 38 highlights

&& CPU core Control (Note 1) Allows you to determine whether to manually enable/disable CPU cores. Automatic mode allows the BIOS to enable all CPU cores (number of cores available depends on the CPU being used). (Default: Automatic mode) && Core C6 State (Note 1) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The C6 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. (Default: Enabled) && HPC Mode (Note 1) Allows you to determine whether to enable High Performance Computing (HPC) mode for the CPU. Enabled prevents the CPU frequency from being lowered during system halt state. (Default: Disabled) && APM (AMD Application Power Management) (Note 1) Enabled Dynamically monitors the power consumption of the CPU cores and automatically optimizes the CPU to its best performance level. (Default) Disabled Disables this function. && Extreme Memory Profile (X.M.P.) (Note 2) Allows the BIOS to read the SPD data on XMP memory module(s) to enhance memory performance when enabled. Disabled Disables this function. (Default) Profile1 Uses Profile 1 settings. Profile2 (Note 2) Uses Profile 2 settings. && System Memory Multiplier Allows you to set the system memory multiplier. Auto sets memory multiplier according to memory SPD data. (Default: Auto) && Memory Frequency (MHz) This value is automatically adjusted according to the BCLK Clock Control and System Memory Multiplier settings. (Note 1) (Note 2) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. This item is present only when you install a memory module that supports this feature.

BIOS Setup
- 38 -
&
CPU core Control
(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to manually enable/disable CPU cores.
Automatic mode
allows the BIOS
to enable all CPU cores (number of cores available depends on the CPU being used). (Default:
Automatic
mode
)
&
Core C6 State
(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The C6
state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. (Default: Enabled)
&
HPC Mode
(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to enable High Performance Computing (HPC) mode for the CPU.
Enabled
prevents the CPU frequency from being lowered during system halt state. (Default:
Disabled
)
&
APM (AMD Application Power Management)
(Note 1)
±
Enabled
Dynamically monitors the power consumption of the CPU cores and automatically
optimizes the CPU to its best performance level. (Default)
±
Disabled
Disables this function.
&
Extreme Memory Profile (X.M.P.)
(Note 2)
Allows the BIOS to read the SPD data on XMP memory module(s) to enhance memory performance when
enabled.
±
Disabled
Disables this function. (Default)
±
Profile1
Uses Profile 1 settings.
±
Profile2
(Note 2)
Uses Profile 2 settings.
&
System Memory Multiplier
Allows you to set the system memory multiplier.
Auto
sets memory multiplier according to memory SPD
data. (Default: Auto)
&
Memory Frequency (MHz)
This value is automatically adjusted according to the
BCLK Clock Control
and
System Memory Multiplier
settings.
