[. . . ] 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) 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. && System Memory Multiplier && Memory Frequency (MHz) `` Advanced Memory Settings &&  xtreme Memory Profile (X. M. P. ) (Note 2), System Memory Multiplier, Memory Frequency(MHz) E && Memory Boot Mode The settings above are synchronous to those under the same items on the Advanced Frequency Settings menu. Fast  Skip memory detection and training in some specific criteria for faster memory boot. Coldboot  Detect and train memory at every single boot. && Memory Enhancement Settings && Memory Timing Mode Provides three different memory performance enhancement settings: Normal (basic performance), Enhanced Stability, and Enhanced Performance. (Default: Normal) Manual and Advanced Manual allows the Channel Interleaving, Rank Interleaving, and memory timing settings below to be configurable. When using a non-XMP memory module or Extreme Memory Profile (X. M. P. ) is set to Disabled, this item will display as 1. 50V. When Extreme Memory Profile (X. M. P. ) is set to Profile1 or Profile2, this item will display the value based on the SPD data on the XMP memory. Enabled allows the system to simultaneously access different channels of the memory to increase memory performance and stability. Enabled allows the system to simultaneously access different ranks of the memory to increase memory performance and stability. (Default: Auto) && Profile DDR Voltage && Channel Interleaving && Rank Interleaving (Note 1) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. Normal Allows the fan to run at different speeds according to the system temperature. You can  adjust the fan speed with EasyTune based on your system requirements. Manual  Allows you to control the fan speed under the Fan Speed Percentage item. - 20 - && CPU Fan Speed Control && Fan Speed Percentage && System Fan Speed Control && Fan Speed Percentage Allows you to control the system fan speed. This item is configurable only when System Fan Speed Control is set to Manual. Options are: 0. 75 PWM value /oC ~ 2. 50 PWM value /oC. `` Miscellaneous Settings && PCIe Slot Configuration && 3DMark01 Boost Allows you to set the operation mode of the PCI Express slots to Gen 1 or Gen 2. (Default: Auto) Allows you to determine whether to enhance some legacy benchmark performance. (Default: Disabled) 2-3 System Information This section provides information on your motherboard model and BIOS version. You can also select the default language used by the BIOS and manually set the system time. && System Language && System Date Selects the default language used by the BIOS. && System Time Sets the system date. Use <Enter> to switch between the Month, Date, and Year fields and use the <Page Up> or <Page Down> key to set the desired value. Use <Enter> to switch between the Hour, Minute, and Second fields and use the <Page Up> or <Page Down> key to set the desired value. [. . . ] Press <Enter> on the device you select and select Yes to confirm. This function allows you to save the current BIOS settings to a profile. You can create up to 8 profiles and save as Setup Profile 1~ Setup Profile 8. Or you can select Select File in HDD/USB/FDD to save the profile to your storage device. [. . . ]
