amount of voltage when increasing DRAM frequency.
You can use the <+> or <-> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 0.001V to
0.999V with a 0.001V interval.
2.5.22 SVID Support [Auto]
When overclocking, set this item to [Enabled]. Disabling this item would stop the processor
from communicating with the external voltage regulator.

The following item appears only when you set SVID Support to [Enabled].
SVID Voltage Override [Auto]
Allows you to set the SVID Voltage override. By default, this item takes the standard value
of the installed CPU. You can use the <+> or <-> keys to adjust the value. The values range
from 0.001V to 2.440V with a 0.001V interval.
2.5.23 Extreme OV [Disabled]
Disable this item to help protect the CPU from being burned by Over Voltage. When you
enable this item, you can choose a high level voltage to overclock, but will not guarantee the
