PRIME / ProArt / TUF GAMING Intel 600 Series BIOS Manual
CPU Core/Cache Current Limit Max.
Allows you to configure a current limit for frequency or power throttling when
overclocking. Can be set to maximum value (511.75) to prevent throttling when
overclocking.
Configuration options: [Auto] [0.00] - [511.75]
CPU Graphics Current Limit
Allows you to configure a high current limit to prevent frequency or power throttling
when overclocking.
Configuration options: [Auto] [0.00] - [511.75]
Long Duration Package Power Limit
An Intel parameter known as [power limit 1] and specified in Watts. The defualt value
is defined by TDP of the processor. Increasing the value will allow the Turbo ratio to
be maintained for a longer duration under higher current loads.
Configuration options: [Auto] [1] - [4095]
Package Power Time Window
An Intel parameter of [power limit 1] and specified in seconds. The applied value
indicates how long the Turbo ratio can be active when TDP is exceeded.
Configuration options: [Auto] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [10] [12] [14] [16] [20] [24] [28]
[32] [40] [48] [56] [64] [80] [96] [112] [128] [160] [192] [224] [256] [320] [384] [448]
Short Duration Package Power Limit
An Intel parameter known as [power limit 2] and specified in Watts. It is the second
Intel power limit which provides protection when package power exceeds power limit
1. The default setting is 1.25 times power limit 1. According to Intel, the platform must
support this value for up to 10msec when power consumption exceeds power limit
2. ASUS motherboards are engineered to support this duration for a longer time as
required to facilitate overclocking.
Configuration options: [Auto] [1] - [4095]
IA AC Load Line
Allows you to set the AC loadline defined in mOhms. Use the <+> and <-> keys to
adjust the value.
Configuration options: [Auto] [0.01] - [62.49]
IA DC Load Line
Allows you to set the DC loadline defined in mOhms. Use the <+> and <-> keys to
adjust the value.
Configuration options: [Auto] [0.01] - [62.49]
IA CEP Enable
Allows you to enable or disable IA CEP (Current Excursion Protection) Support. Uses
pCode Mailbox Command 0x37, Sub-command 0x1. Set Databit2 to 1.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
GT CEP Enable
Allows you to enable or disable GT CEP (Current Excursion Protection) Support. Uses
pCode Mailbox Command 0x37, Sub-command 0x1. Set Databit3 to 1.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
