BIOS Setup
 fHardware Prefetcher [Enabled]
Enables or disables the hardware prefetcher (MLC Streamer prefetcher).
[Enabled]  Allows the hardware prefetcher to automatically pre-fetch data 
and instructions into L2 cache from memory for tuning the CPU 
performance.
[Disabled]  Disables the hardware prefetcher.
 fAdjacent Cache Line Prefetch [Enabled]
Enables or disables the CPU hardware prefetcher (MLC Spatial prefetcher).
[Enabled]  Enables adjacent cache line prefetching for reducing the cache 
latency time and tuning the performance to the specific application.
[Disabled]  Enables the requested cache line only.
 fCPU AES Instructions [Enabled]
Enables or disables the CPU AES (Advanced Encryption Standard-New 
Instructions) support. This item appears when a CPU supports this function.
 fIntel Adaptive Thermal Monitor [Enabled]

[Disabled]  Disables this function.
 fIntel C-State [Auto]  
Enables or disables the Intel C-state. C-state is a processor power management 
technology defined by ACPI.
[Auto]  This setting will be configured automatically by BIOS.
[Enabled]  Detects the idle state of system and reduce CPU power consumption 
accordingly.
[Disabled]    Disable this function.
 fC1E Support [Disabled]
Enables or disables the C1E function for power-saving in halt state. This item 
appears when Intel C-State is enabled.
[Enabled]  Enables C1E function to reduce the CPU frequency and voltage for 
power-saving in halt state.
[Disabled]  Disables this function.
 fPackage C State limit [Auto]
This item allows you to select a CPU C-state level for power-saving when system is 
idle. The options of C-state depend on the installed CPU. This item appears when 
Intel C-State is enabled.
