Gigabyte GA-990FX - Advanced Frequency Settings; Advanced CPU Core Features

` M.I.T. Current Status
This screen provides information on CPU/memory frequencies/parameters.
` Advanced Frequency Settings
& BCLK Clock Control
 AllowsyoutomanuallysettheCPUbaseclockin1MHzincrements.(Default:Auto)
Important: It is highly recommended that the CPU frequency be set in accordance with the CPU
specications.
& CPU NorthBridge Frequency
Allows you to alter the North Bridge controller frequency for the installed CPU. The adjustable range is
dependent on the CPU being installed.
& HT Link Frequency
Allows you to manually set the frequency for the HT Link between the CPU and chipset. The adjustable
rangeisdependentontheCPUbeinginstalled.(Default:Auto)
& CPU Clock Ratio
Allows you to alter the clock ratio for the installed CPU. The adjustable range is dependent on the CPU
being installed.
& CPU Frequency
 DisplaysthecurrentoperatingCPUfrequency.
` Advanced CPU Core Features
& CPU Clock Ratio, CPU Frequency
The settings above are synchronous to those under the same items on the Advanced Frequency Settings
menu.
& Core Performance Boost
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to enable the Core Performance Boost (CPB) technology, a CPU
performance-boosttechnology.(Default:Auto)
& CPB Ratio
(Note)
Allows you alter the ratio for the CPB. The adjustable range is dependent on the CPU being installed.
(Default:Auto)
& CPU Unlock
(Note)
 AllowsyoutodeterminewhetherunlockhiddenCPUcores.(Default:Disabled)
& Cool & Quiet
Enabled  LetstheAMDCool'n'QuietdriverdynamicallyadjusttheCPUclockandVIDtoreduce
heatoutputfromyourcomputeranditspowerconsumption.(Default)
Disabled  Disablesthisfunction.
& C1E Support
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C1 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption.
(Default:Enabled)
& SVM
Virtualization enhanced by Virtualization Technology will allow a platform to run multiple operating systems
and applications in independent partitions. With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple
virtualsystems.(Default:Enabled)
& CPU core Control
(Note)
Allows you to determine whether to manually enable/disable CPU cores. Automatic mode allows the BIOS
toenableallCPUcores(numberofcoresavailabledependsontheCPUbeingused).(Default:Automatic
mode)
(Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature.
