BIOS Setup ▶ PCIE GEN3 This item is used to enable (Auto)/ disable (Disabled) the PCIe generation 3 support. ▶ PCI Latency Timer Controls how long each PCI device can hold the bus before another takes over. When set to higher values, every PCI device can conduct transactions for a longer time and thus improve the effective PCI bandwidth. ▶ ACPI Settings Press to enter the sub-menu. ▶ ACPI Standby State Specifies the power saving mode for ACPI function [S1] Sleep Mode. Hardware remains on. [S3] Suspend to RAM. Turns off hardware. (Recommended) ▶ Power LED Configures how the system uses power LEDs on the case to indicate sleep/ suspend state. [Single] The power LED turns off during the sleep/suspend mode. [Dual] The power LED changes its color to indicate the sleep/suspend state. [Blinking] The power LED blinks to indicate the sleep/suspend state. ▶ Integrated Peripherals Press to enter the sub-menu. ▶ Onboard LAN Controller This item allows you to enable/ disable the onboard LAN controller. ▶ LAN Option ROM This item is used to decide whether to invoke the Boot ROM of the onboard LAN. ▶ Network Stack This item is used to enable/ disable UEFI network stack. ▶ Ipv4 PXE Support This item appears when you set "Enabled" in [Network Stack] field and is used to enable/ disable the Ipv4 PXE boot support. ▶ Ipv6 PXE Support This item appears when you set "Enabled" in [Network Stack] field and is used to enable/ disable the Ipv6 PXE boot support. ▶ WiFi Controller This item allows you to enable/ disable the WiFi controller. ▶ Bluetooth Controller This item allows you to enable/ disable the Bluetooth controller. ▶ SATA Mode This item is used to specify RAID/ IDE/ AHCI mode for SATA port. 2-6

BIOS Setup
PCIE GEN3
Th±s ±tem ±s used to enable (Auto)/ d±sable (D±sabled) the PCIe generat±on 3
support.
PCI Latency T±mer
Controls how long each PCI dev±ce can hold the bus before another takes over.
When set to h±gher values, every PCI dev±ce can conduct transact±ons for a longer
t±me and thus ±mprove the effect±ve PCI bandw±dth.
ACPI Sett±ngs
Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.
ACPI Standby State
Spec±fies the power sav±ng mode for ACPI funct±on
[S1]
Sleep Mode. Hardware rema±ns on.
[S3]
Suspend to RAM. Turns off hardware. (Recommended)
Power LED
Configures how the system uses power LEDs on the case to ±nd±cate sleep/
suspend state.
[S±ngle]
The power LED turns off dur±ng the sleep/suspend mode.
[Dual]
The power LED changes ±ts color to ±nd±cate the sleep/suspend
state.
[Bl±nk±ng]
The power LED bl±nks to ±nd±cate the sleep/suspend state.
Integrated Per±pherals
Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.
Onboard LAN Controller
Th±s ±tem allows you to enable/ d±sable the onboard LAN controller.
LAN Opt±on ROM
Th±s ±tem ±s used to dec±de whether to ±nvoke the Boot ROM of the onboard LAN.
Network Stack
Th±s ±tem ±s used to enable/ d±sable UEFI network stack.
Ipv4 PXE Support
Th±s ±tem appears when you set “Enabled” ±n [Network Stack] field and ±s used to
enable/ d±sable the Ipv4 PXE boot support.
Ipv6 PXE Support
Th±s ±tem appears when you set “Enabled” ±n [Network Stack] field and ±s used to
enable/ d±sable the Ipv6 PXE boot support.
W±F± Controller
Th±s ±tem allows you to enable/ d±sable the W±F± controller.
Bluetooth Controller
Th±s ±tem allows you to enable/ d±sable the Bluetooth controller.
SATA Mode
Th±s ±tem ±s used to spec±fy RAID/ IDE/ AHCI mode for SATA port.
