QPI Frequency

This item allows you to select the QPI frequency.

Memory Frequency

This setting allows you to select the memory frequency.

Memory M ode

This setting specifies the memory mode.

Demand Scrubbing, Patrol Scrubbing

These settings support demand and patrol scrubbing to detect and repair memory

problems. If it encounters a memory problem that cannot be repaired, it marks

the bad location so that it will not be used in the future.

Memory ECC Function

This setting enables/disables ECC (Error Correction Code) checking, a method

of checking the integrity of data in DRAM. ECC provides more elaborate error

detection than parity; ECC can detect multiple-bit errors and can locate and

correct single-bit errors.

NUMA Support

Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) is designed to increase processor speed

without increasing the load on the processor bus. The architecture is non-

uniform because each processor is close to some parts of memory and farther

from other parts of memory. The processor quickly gains access to the memory

it is close to, while it can take longer to gain access to memory that is farther

away. In a NUMA system, CPUs are arranged in smaller systems called nodes.

Each node has its own processors and memory, and is connected to the larger

system through a cache-coherent interconnect bus.

NOTE: To support NUMA, users need to build SRAT table, enable ACPI
2.0 or 3.0 support, and set Memory Mode to [Lockstep].

Adaptive Page Support

This setting enables/disables the support for a virtual memory page replace-

ment algorithm.

Page Policy

This setting specifies the memory page policy.

Split below 4G

This setting determines whether to split below 4G memory or not.

Data Scramble

This setting enables/disables the data scramble function.
