ASUS PRIME X370-A2‑17

2.5.6 OC Tuner [Keep Current Settings]

This item allows you to automatically overclock the CPU and DRAM frequencies and voltage

for an enhanced system performance. It also accelerates the CPU graphics performance to

the extreme depending on the CPU graphics loading. Conguration options: [Keep Current

Settings] [OC Tuner]

Ensure that you installed an efcient CPU fan for CPU and graphics loading before

selecting either [OC Tuner]. To keep the current overclocking tuner status, select [Keep

Current Settings].

2.5.7 DRAM Timing Control

The sub‑items in this menu allow you to set the DRAM timing control features. Use the

<+> and <‑> keys to adjust the value. To restore the default setting, type [auto] using the

keyboard and press <Enter>.

Changing the values in this menu may cause the system to become unstable! If this

happens, revert to the default settings.

2.5.8 TDP Conguration

This item appears only when you install an AMD 7

Generation A‑series/Athlon

processor.

Target TDP [Auto]

Allows you to manually set up a TDP (Thermal Design Power) value. The processor will run

within the specied TDP to constrain power consumption.

2.5.9 DIGI+ VRM

VDDCR CPU Load Line Calibration [Auto]

Load‑line Calibration is dened by AMD VRM specications and affects CPU voltage. The

CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally to CPU loading. Higher load‑line calibration

would get higher voltage and better overclocking performance, but increase the CPU and

VRM thermal. This item allows you to adjust the voltage range from the following percentages

to boost the system performance: 0% (Regular), 60% (Medium), 80% (High), and 100%

(Extreme). Conguration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [High] [Extreme]

• The boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU specication. Do not

remove the thermal module.

• The conguration levels vary depending on the CPUs installed.

VDDCR SOC Load Line Calibration [Auto]

Allows you to select the CPU/NB Load‑Line Calibration mode. Conguration options: [Auto]

[Regular] [High] [Extreme]
