Turbo Mode
Intel Turbo Boost is a technology implemented by Intel in certain versions
of their Nehalem-, Sandy-Bridge- and Ivy-Bridge-based CPUs, including
Core i5 and Core i7 that enables the processor to run above its base
operating frequency via dynamic control of the CPU’s “clock rate”. It is
activated when the operating system requests the highest performance
state of the processor.
CPU C3/C6/C7 Report
This option allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3/C6/
C7 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency
and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power
consumption. The C3/C6/C7 state is a more enhanced power-saving
state than C1. (Default: Enabled).
Config TDP LOCK
TDP “Thermal Design Power”: Use this feature to lock the Config TDP
Control register. You can select to enable or disable this option.
Long duration power limit
This is the processor power consumption limit (in Watts) during a long
duration time window. The default setting is 0.
Long duration maintained
Long Duration maintained (ms): This is the time in milliseconds where
the Long Duration Power Limit is maintained. The default setting is 0.
Short duration power limit
During Turbo Mode, the system may exceed the processor’s default pow-
er setting and exceed the Short Duration Power Limit. By increasing this
value, the processor can provide better performance for a short duration.
The default setting is 0.
ACPI T State
T-States (Processor Throttling States): T-states refer to throttling the pro-
cessor clock to lower frequencies in order to reduce thermal effects. This
means that the CPU is forced to be idle a fixed percentage of its cycles
per second. Throttling states range from T1 (the CPU has no forced idle
cycles) to Tn, with the percentage of idle cycles increasing the greater n
is. Default setting: [Disabled].
