Function no. Function description
1 CPU Load-line Calibration
It allows you to adjust the voltage settings and control the system
temperature. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and
good overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal.
2 CPU Current Capability
CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking.
A higher value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery.
3 CPU Voltage Frequency
Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and
component thermal. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.
