(Note 1)
Enables or disables Intel CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) function, a CPU power-saving function in system
halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to
decrease power consumption. AutoOHWVWKH%,26DXWRPDWLFDOO\FRQ¿JXUHWKLVVHWWLQJ'HIDXOW$XWR

(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3/C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption.
The C3/C6 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. AutoOHWVWKH%,26DXWRPDWLFDOO\FRQ¿JXUH
