If the processor temperature exceeds the internal Alert temperature level (~ 100
°
C; exact level depends
on processor), the onboard electronics forces the processor to throttle down (“ProcHot”) in order to
reduce the power consumption and prevent the system from damage. The processor performance will
be reduced to ~ 50%.
Note: This performance compensation will not be reset automatically after the processor has reached its
specified temperature range again, but will remain active until the system is shut down or set to S3 (Standby) or
S4 (save to disk).
Due to reliability reasons this option is <Enabled> in BIOS Setup by default.
If this option is disabled, the system will shutdown in case of excess processor temperaturwhen
reaching a limit of ~ 125
°
C
