Using TPU
• Set the CPU Core Ratio item in BIOS to [Auto] before using the CPU Frequency
in TPU. Refer to section Extreme Tweaker menu in the BIOS chapter of your
motherboard user manual for details.
• The CPU Frequency bars show the status of the CPU cores, which vary with your
CPU model.
TurboV Processing Unit (TPU)
TPU allows you to manually adjust the CPU frequency, CPU cache, core frequencies, DRAM
frequency, and related voltages for an enhanced system stability and a performance boost.
Refer to the CPU documentation before adjusting CPU voltage settings. Setting a high
voltage may damage the CPU permanently and setting a low voltage may lead to an
unstable system.
For system stability, the TPU settings are not saved in the BIOS and are not loaded during
system bootup. Save your overclocking settings as a TPU profile and manually load this
profile after system bootup.
