Chapter 3

3-22BIOS Setup 3-23 BIOS Setup

DRAM Phase Control [Auto]

Controls PWM phase proportionally to the DRAM loading. If set to "Auto", BIOS

will optimize the DRAM PWM phase automatically.

[Auto] This setting will be configured automatically by BIOS.

[Disabled] Disables the PWM power phase switching feature.

DRAM Switching Frequency [Auto]

Sets the PWM working speed to stabilize DRAM voltage and minimize ripple range.

If set to "Auto", BIOS will configure this setting automatically.

VCCIN Voltage [Auto]

Sets the CPU input voltage. The CPU input voltage is the CPU power source that is

shared with components of the CPU.

CPU Core/Ring/GT Voltage Mode [Auto]*

Selects the control mode for CPU Core/ Ring/ GT voltages.

[Auto] This setting will be configured automatically by BIOS.

[Adaptive Mode] Sets the adaptive voltage automatically for optimizing the system

performance.

[Override Mode] Allows you to set the voltage manually.

[Offset Mode] Allows you to set the offset voltage and select the voltage

offset mode.

[Adaptive + Offset ] Sets the adaptive voltage automatically and allows you to set the

offset voltage.

[Override + Offset ] Allows you to set the voltage and the offset voltage manually.

CPU Core Voltage/ CPU Ring Voltage/ CPU GT Voltage [Auto]

Sets the CPU Core/ Ring/ GT voltages. If set to "Auto", BIOS will set these voltages

automatically or you can set it manually. This item appears when "CPU Core/Ring/GT

Voltage Mode" sets to [Auto]/ [Adaptive Mode]/ [Override Mode].

CPU Core/ Ring/ GT Voltage Offset Mode [Auto]*

Selects the offset mode for CPU Core/ Ring/ GT voltage. This item appears when

"CPU Core/Ring/GT Voltage Mode" sets to [Offset Mode]/ [Adaptive + Offset]/

[Override + Offset].

[Auto] This setting will be configured automatically by BIOS.

[+] Allows you to offset the voltage by positive value mode.

[-] Allows you to offset the voltage by negative value mode.

CPU Core/ Ring/ GT Voltage Offset [Auto] Sets the offset value for CPU Core/ Ring/

GT voltage. If set to "Auto", BIOS will set these voltages automatically or you can

set it manually. This item appears when "CPU Core/Ring/GT Voltage Mode" sets to

[Offset Mode]/ [Adaptive + Offset]/ [Override + Offset].

CPU SA/IOA/IOD Voltage Mode [Manual Mode]*

Selects the control mode for CPU SA/ IOA (IO Analog)/ IOD (IO Digital) voltages.

[Manual] Allows you to set the voltage manually.

[Offset] Allows you to set the offset voltage and select the voltage offset mode.
