Page 28 highlights

Adjusted GT Frequency It shows the adjusted integrated graphics frequency. Read-only. DRAM Voltage This item is used to adjust the memory voltage. CPU Features Press to enter the sub-menu. In this sub-menu you can adjust the CPU features. Hyper-threading The processor uses Hyper-Threading technology to increase transaction rates and reduces end-user response times. The technology treats the two cores inside the processor as two logical processors that can execute instructions simultaneously. In this way, the system performance is highly improved. If you disable the function, the processor will use only one core to execute the instructions. Please disable this item if your operating system doesn't support HT Function, or unreliability and instability may occur. Active Processor Cores This item allows you to select the number of active processor cores. Limit CPUID Maximum It is designed to limit the listed speed of the processor to older operating systems. Execute Disable Bit Can prevent certain classes of malicious "buffer overflow" attacks where worms can try to execute code to damage your system. It is recommended you keep this enabled always. Intel Virtualization Tech Enhances virtualization and allows the system to act as multiple virtual systems. See Intel's official website for more information. Intel VT-D Tech This item is used to enable/disable the Intel VT-D technology. For further information please refer to Intel's official website. Power Technology This item allows you to select the Intel Dynamic Power technology mode. C1E Support Enable system to reduce CPU power consumption while idle. Not all processors support Enhanced Halt state (C1E). OverSpeed Protection Monitors current CPU draw as well as power consumption; if it exceeds a certain level, the processor automatically reduces its clock speed. For overclocking, it is recommended this feature is disabled. 28
