ROG STRIX Z690 SERIES BIOS Manual
CPU Graphics Current Capability
The CPU Graphics current capability adjusts the total power range for CPU Graphics
overclocking. A higher value provides a wider total power range and extends the
overclocking frequency range simultaneously.
Configuration options: [Auto] [100%] [140%]
Configure higher values when overclocking or under a high CPU Graphics loading for
extra power support.
CPU Graphics VRM Switching Frequency
The switching frequency will affect the CPU Graphics transient response spreed
and the component thermal production. Select manual mode to configure a higher
frequency to get a quicker transient response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Manual]. The thermal
conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when CPU Graphics VRM Switching Frequency is set
to [Manual].
Fixed CPU Graphics Switching Frequency(KHz)
The switching frequency will affect the CPU Graphics transient response spreed and
the component thermal production. Use the <+> or <-> to adjust the value. The values
range from 500 KHz to 800 KHz with an interval of 100 KHz.
