Important
If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at [Disabled] for optimal
system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, select the value
of Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction.
The greater the Spread Spectrum value is, the greater the EMI is reduced, and
the system will become less stable. For the most suitable Spread Spectrum value,
please consult your local EMI regulation.
Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a
slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause
your overclocked processor to lock up.
CPU Memory Changed Detect [Enabled]
Enables or disables the system to issue a warning message during boot when the
CPU or memory has been replaced.
[Enabled]
The system will issue a warning message during boot and than
needs to load the default settings for new devices.
[Disabled]
Disables this function and keeps the current BIOS settings.
OC Retry Count
When overclocking has failed, setting this item as [±,3] will allow system to reboot
±/ 3 times with the same overclocked configuration. If overclocking has failed every
time, the system will restore the defaults.
CPU Features
Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.
AMD Cool’n’Quiet [Auto]
Enabled or disabled AMD Cool’n’Quiet function.
[Auto]
Depends on AMD Design.
[Enable]
Enables AMD Cool’n’Quiet function. The Cool’n’Quiet
technology can effectively and dynamically lower CPU speed
and power consumption.
[Disabled]
Disables this function.
Important
When adjust CPU Ratio setting then Cool’n’Quiet function will be disabled
automatically. For CPU which supports the Turbo Core Tech., please set AMD Turbo
Core Technology and AMD Cool’n’Quiet as Disabled to retain the default CPU core
speed.
SVM Mode [Enabled]
Enables or disables CPU Virtualization.
[Enabled]
Enables CPU Virtualization and allows a platform to run
multiple operating systems in independent partitions. The
system can function as multiple systems virtually.
[Disabled]
Disables this function.
