CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]

Load-line is defined by Intel

®

VRM specification and affects CPU power voltage. The

CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load-line
calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance but increases
the CPU and VRM thermal conditions.
Select from Level 1 to Level 8 to adjust CPU power voltage from 0% to 100%.

The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU specification.

DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions must be monitored.

CPU Voltage Frequency [Auto]

Switching frequency affects the VRM transient response and the thermal component
conditions. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.
