BIOS Setup
- 38 -
& Turbo Power Limit (Watts)
Allows you to set a power limit for CPU Turbo mode. When the CPU power consumption exceeds the
speciedpowerlimit,theCPUwillautomaticallyreducethecorefrequencyinordertoreducethepower.
AutosetsthepowerlimitaccordingtotheCPUspecications.(Default:Auto)
& Core Current Limit (Amps)
 AllowsyoutosetacurrentlimitforCPUTurbomode.WhentheCPUcurrentexceedsthespeciedcurrent
limit,theCPUwillautomaticallyreducethecorefrequencyinordertoreducethecurrent.Auto sets the
powerlimitaccordingtotheCPUspecications.(Default:Auto)
& CPU Core Enabled
(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to enable all CPU cores. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethis
setting.(Default:Auto)
& Hyper-Threading Technology
(Note 1)
Allows you to determine whether to enable multi-threading technology when using an Intel
®
CPU that
supports this function. This feature only works for operating systems that support multi-processor mode.

& CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E)
(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letstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethissetting.(Default:Auto)
& C3 State Support
(Note 1)
 AllowsyoutodeterminewhethertolettheCPUenterC3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 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongure
thissetting.(Default:Auto)
& C6/C7 State Support
(Note 1)
 AllowsyoutodeterminewhethertolettheCPUenterC6/C7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 C6/C7 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C3. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongure
thissetting.(Default:Auto)
& CPU Thermal Monitor
(Note 1)
Enables or disables Intel
®
ThermalMonitorfunction,aCPUoverheatingprotectionfunction.Whenenabled,
the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced when the CPU is overheated. Auto lets the BIOS
automaticallycongurethissetting.(Default:Auto)
& CPU EIST Function
(Note 1)
Enables or disables Enhanced Intel
®
SpeedStepTechnology(EIST).DependingonCPUloading,Intel
EIST technology can dynamically and effectively lower the CPU voltage and core frequency to decrease
average power consumption and heat production. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethissetting.
(Default:Auto)
& ExtremeMemoryProle(X.M.P.)
(Note 2)
 AllowstheBIOStoreadtheSPDdataonXMPmemorymodule(s)toenhancememoryperformancewhen
enabled.
