BIOS Setup Dynamic Overclocking Dynamic Overclocking Technology is the automatic overclocking function, included in the MSITM's newly developed CoreCelTl M Technology. It is designed to detect the load balance of CPU while running programs, and to adjust the best CPU frequency automatically. When the motherboard detects CPU is running programs, it will speed up CPU automatically to make the program run smoothly and faster. When the CPU is temporarily suspending or staying in the low load balance, it will restore the default settings instead. Usually the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be powered only when users' PC need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the video process, and the CPU frequency need to be boosted up to enhance the overall performance. Setting options: [Disabled] [Private] [Sergeant] [Captain] [Colonel] [General] [Commander] Disable Dynamic Overclocking function. 1st level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 1%. 2nd level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 3%. 3rd level of overclocking, also the default value of "Load High Performance Defaults", increasing the CPU frequency by 5%. 4th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 7%. 5th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 9%. 6th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 11%. MSI Reminds You... Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user to make sure that your CPU can afford to overclocking regularly first.

Dynamic Overclocking
Dynamic Overclocking Technology is the automatic overclocking function, included in
the MSI
TM
’s newly developed CoreCell

Technology. It is designed to detect the load
balance of CPU while running programs, and to adjust the best CPU frequency
automatically. When the motherboard detects CPU is running programs, it will speed
up CPU automatically to make the program run smoothly and faster. When the CPU is
temporarily suspending or staying in the low load balance, it will restore the default
settings instead. Usually the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be powered only
when users' PC need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the video process,
and the CPU frequency need to be boosted up to enhance the overall performance.
Setting options:
[Disabled]
Disable Dynamic Overclocking function.
[Private]
1st level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 1%.
[Sergeant]
2nd level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 3%.
[Captain]
3rd level of overclocking, also the default value of "Load High
Performance Defaults", increasing the CPU frequency by 5%.
[Colonel]
4th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 7%.
[General]
5th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 9%.
[Commander]
6th level of overclocking, increasing the CPU frequency by 11%.
MSI Reminds You...
Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable
than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user
to make sure that your CPU can afford to overclocking regularly first.
If you find the PC appears to be unstable or reboot incidentally, it's
better to disable the Dynamic Overclocking or to lower the level of
overclocking options. By the way, if you need to conduct overclocking
manually, you also need to disable the
D.O.T Ranger
first.

Select the number between [200]~[400] for needed frequency.
HT Frequency
This setting specifies the maximum operating frequency of the link’s transmitter clock.
Setting options: [1x], [1.5x], [2x], [2.5x], [3x], [4x], [5x].
HT Width
This field allows you to set the HT Width between CPU & Chip.
↑
mark means Chip to
CPU HT Width. And
↓
mark means CPU to Chip HT Width. Setting options: [

CPU Spread Spectrum
This setting is used to enable or disable the CPU Spread Spectrum feature. When
overclocking the CPU, always set it to [Disabled]. Setting options: [Center Spread],
