Gigabyte GA-F2A55M-S1 User Manual - Page 17

Whether the system will work stably with the overclock/overvoltage settings you made is dependent on your overall system configurations. Incorrectly doing overclock/overvoltage may result in damage to CPU, chipset, or memory and reduce the useful life of these components. This page is for advanced users only and we recommend you not to alter the default settings to prevent system instability or other unexpected results. (Inadequately altering the settings may result in system's failure to boot. If this occurs, clear the CMOS values and reset the board to default values.) `` M.I.T. Current Status This screen provides information on CPU/memory frequencies/parameters. `` Advanced Frequency Settings && BCLK/PCIe Clock Control Allows you to manually set the CPU base clock and PCIe bus frequency in 1 MHz increments. (Default: Auto) Important: It is highly recommended that the CPU frequency be set in accordance with the CPU specifications. && NB Clock (Mhz) Allows you to manually set the CPU North Bridge frequency. The adjustable range is from 800 MHz to 6000 MHz. && Processor Graphics Clock Allows you to set the onboard graphics clock. The adjustable range is from 300 MHz to 2000 MHz. && CPU Clock Ratio Allows you to alter the clock ratio for the installed CPU. The adjustable range is dependent on the CPU being installed. && CPU Frequency Displays the current operating CPU frequency. `` Advanced CPU Core Features && CPU Clock Ratio, CPU Frequency The settings above are synchronous to those under the same items on the Advanced Frequency Settings menu. && Core Performance Boost (Note) Allows you to determine whether to enable the Core Performance Boost (CPB) technology, a CPU performance-boost technology. (Default: Auto) && Turbo CPB (Note) Allows you to determine whether to improve CPU performance. (Default: Disabled) && CPB Ratio (Note) Allows you alter the ratio for the CPB. The adjustable range is dependent on the CPU being installed. (Default: Auto) && Cool&Quiet Enabled Lets the AMD Cool'n'Quiet driver dynamically adjust the CPU clock and VID to reduce heat output from your computer and its power consumption. (Default) Disabled Disables this function. && SVM Mode Virtualization enhanced by Virtualization Technology will allow a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions. With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple virtual systems. (Default: Enabled) && C6 Mode 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) (Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. - 17 -
