&& Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology (Note) Allows you to determine whether to enable the Intel CPU Turbo Boost technology. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && Turbo Ratio (Note) Allows you to set the CPU Turbo ratios for different number of active cores. Auto sets the CPU Turbo ratios according to the CPU specifications. (Default: Auto) && Power Limit TDP (Watts) / Power Limit Time Allows you to set the power limit for CPU Turbo mode and how long it takes to operate at the specified power limit. If the specified value is exceeded, the CPU will automatically reduce the core frequency in order to reduce the power. Auto sets the power limit according to the CPU specifications. (Default: Auto) && Core Current Limit (Amps) Allows you to set a current limit for CPU Turbo mode. When the CPU current exceeds the specified current limit, the CPU will automatically reduce the core frequency in order to reduce the current. Auto sets the power limit according to the CPU specifications. (Default: Auto) && No. of CPU Cores Enabled (Note) Allows you to select the number of CPU cores to enable in an Intel® multi-core CPU (the number of CPU cores may vary by CPU). Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && Hyper-Threading Technology (Note) Allows you to determine whether to enable multi-threading technology when using an Intel® CPU that supports this function. This feature only works for operating systems that support multi-processor mode. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) (Note) Enables or disables Intel® CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) function, a CPU power-saving function in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && C3 State Support (Note) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3 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 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && C6/C7 State Support (Note) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6/C7 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 C6/C7 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C3. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && C8 State Support (Note) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C8 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 C8 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C6/C7. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && Package C State Limit (Note) Allows you to specify the C-state limit for the processor. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) && CPU Thermal Monitor (Note) Enables or disables Intel® Thermal Monitor function, a CPU overheating protection function. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced when the CPU is overheated. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto) (Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about Intel® CPUs' unique features, please visit Intel's website. - 23 -

Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to enable the Intel CPU Turbo Boost technology.
Auto
lets the BIOS
automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
&
Turbo Ratio
(Note)
Allows you to set the CPU Turbo ratios for different number of active cores.
Auto
sets the CPU Turbo ratios
according to the CPU specifications. (Default: Auto)
&
Power Limit TDP (Watts) / Power Limit Time
Allows you to set the power limit for CPU Turbo mode and how long it takes to operate at the specified
