[. . . ] When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. (Default: Auto) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about Intel® CPUs' unique features, please visit Intel's website. - 17 - (Note) && CPU Thermal Monitor (Note 1) && CPU EIST Function (Note 1) Enables or disables Intel® CPU Thermal Monitor function, a CPU overheating protection function. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced when the CPU is overheated. (Default: Auto) Enables or disables Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep 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. (Default: Auto) && Extreme Memory Profile (X. M. P. ) (Note 2) && System Memory Multiplier Allows the BIOS to read the SPD data on XMP memory module(s) to enhance memory performance when enabled. (Default: Auto) The first memory frequency value is the normal operating frequency of the memory being used; the second is the memory frequency that is automatically adjusted according to the System Memory Multiplier settings. && Memory Frequency (MHz) `` Advanced Memory Settings && Extreme Memory Profile (X. M. P. ) (Note 2), System Memory Multiplier, Memory Frequency(MHz) && Performance Enhance The settings above are synchronous to those under the same items on the Advanced Frequency Settings menu. (Default) Extreme  Lets the system operate at its best performance level. Quick and Expert allows the Channel Interleaving, Rank Interleaving, and memory timing settings below to be configurable. The value displayed here is dependent on the CPU being used. && DRAM Timing Selectable && Profile DDR Voltage && Profile VTT Voltage && Channel Interleaving Enables or disables memory channel interleaving. Enabled allows the system to simultaneously access different channels of the memory to increase memory performance and stability. (Default: Auto) (Note 1) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about Intel® CPUs' unique features, please visit Intel's website. (Note 2) This item is present only when you install a memory module that supports this feature. - 18 - && Rank Interleaving Enables or disables memory rank interleaving. Enabled allows the system to simultaneously access different ranks of the memory to increase memory performance and stability. (Default: Auto) `` Channel A/B Timing Settings This sub-menu provides memory timing settings for each channel of memory. The respective timing setting screens are configurable only when DRAM Timing Selectable is set to Quick or Expert. Note: Your system may become unstable or fail to boot after you make changes on the memory timings. If this occurs, please reset the board to default values by loading optimized defaults or clearing the CMOS values. `` Advanced Voltage Settings Allows you to set memory voltage. [. . . ] You can select Select File in HDD/USB/FDD to input the profile previously created from your storage device or load the profile automatically created by the BIOS, such as reverting the BIOS settings to the last settings that worked properly (last known good record). && Load Optimized Defaults && Boot Override && Save Profiles && Load Profiles Chapter 3 Appendix Drivers Installation •• Before installing the drivers, first install the operating system. •• After installing the operating system, insert the motherboard driver disk into your optical drive. The driver Autorun screen is automatically displayed which looks like that shown in the screen shot below. (If the driver Autorun screen does not appear automatically, go to My Computer, double-click the optical drive and execute the Run. exe program. ) After inserting the driver disk, "Xpress Install" will automatically scan your system and then list all the drivers that are recommended to install.
