GPU Performance Scaling (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
You can enable/disable NVIDIA GPU Performance scaling from this menu. The
NVIDIA Card does the scaling if this option is on, and has less latency than the Intel
GPU. This can be useful if you play games etc.
VT-d (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
Enable/disable Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) from
this menu. This extends Intel's Virtualization Technology (VT) by providing hard-
ware assists for a virtualization solution.
UEFI OS Fast Boot(Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
Use this menu item to enable/disable the Fast Boot option, which when enabled,
helps reduce the time it takes to boot the computer.
Software Guard Extensions (SGX) - (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)
Intel provides SGX, which is a set of instructions allowing user-level code a degree
of security, and privacy, from the operating system. Make sure that SW Guard Ex-
tensions is Enabled here, and then install the driver (see “Intel® Software Guard
Extensions Driver” on page 6 - 38) to support this.
