At this moment, AMD family 10 series is equivalent to AM2+, and most CPU in this series are

Quad Cores. This option enables shutting down portions of the circuits in core when not in load,

it is a new feature of AM2+ CPU. This option will be displayed only if your CPU is supporting

this feature.

[Auto] : Enable entire cores, [Single Core] : Enable 1 core, Dual Core] : Enable 2 cores,
[Tri Core] : Enable 3 cores, [Quad Core] : Enable 4 cores.

Memory Timing Setting

► SLI-Ready Memory

Memory modules all have a programmable ROM chip that stores the SPD (Serial Presence

Detect) information. The function of SPD is to hold the performance capabilities of the memory.

This information is typically the optimal memory frequency and timings. Only one set of mem-

ory information can be stored on the SPD ROM because of JEDEC specifications. Developed

as an extension to the traditional Serial Presence Detect (SPD) found on today’s high-perform-

ance DIMMS, Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP) allow memory manufacturers to integrate

additional module performance data in the unused portion of the JEDEC standard SPD, allow-

ing compatible motherboards to read and take advantage of added performance capabilities.

Enhanced Performance Profiles are useful for JEDEC specified modules as manufacturers

can have two predefined profiles for the memory modules—conservative and aggressive tim-

ings.SLI-Ready Memory settings become available when SLI-Ready/EPP memory modules

are detected by the BIOS. The settings include CPUOC 0% to CPUOC 13% and CPUOC

MAX. The various settings tells the BIOS the user wants to run the memory modules at the

higher speed, and it is alright to overclock the processor by the selected percentage. With the

selected option the BIOS will automatically drop the multiplier and increase the Hyper Trans-

port reference clock accordingly. The only thing the BIOS can’t do is adjust the CPU voltage so

if it goes too high you may run into stability problems if the CPU voltage isn’t increased. While

memory modules with Enhanced Performance Profiles will work on any motherboard, only

motherboards equipped with properly-designed BIOSes, such as those designed for NVIDIA

nForce® SLI media and communications processors (MCPs), will detect the presence of these
