CPU Internal Power Switching Frequency
Frequency Tuning Mode [Auto]
Allows you to increase or decrease the switching frequency of the internal
regulator. Decrease to help consume less power or increase to help voltage
stability. When this item is set to [+] or [-], the Frequency Tuning Offset
appears and allows you to set its value from 0% to 6%.
* Appear only when you set the Turbo Mode to [Disabled].
CPU Internal Power Fault Control
Thermal Feedback [Auto]
Allows the CPU to take precautionary actions when the thermal conditions
of the external regulator exceeds the threshold.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
CPU Integrated VR Fault Management [Auto]
Allows you to prevent tripping the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator when
doing over-voltage. Conguration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
We recommend to set this item to [Disable] when overclocking.
CPU Internal Power Conguration
CPU Integrated VR Efciency Management [Auto]
Allows you to improve power saving when the processor is in low power
state. Disable this item to make the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator work
in high performance at all times.
Conguration options: [Auto] [High Performance] [Balanced]
Power Decay Mode [Auto]
Allows you to enable this item to improve the power saving on the Fully
Integrated Voltage Regulator as the processor goes into low current state.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
Idle Power-in Response [Auto]
Allows you to set the slew rate for the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator as
it enters manual override mode.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Fast]
Idle Power-out Response [Auto]
Allows you to set the slew rate for the Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator as
it exits manual override mode.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Fast]
Power Current Slope [Auto]
Allows you to adjust the gradient of the high-speed active phase current
balance during load transients to eliminate current imbalance, resulting
from a load current oscillating near the switching frequency.
Conguration options: [Auto] [LEVEL -4] - [LEVEL 4]
