[Auto]
This item allows the operating system to dynamically adjust the processor voltage and cores
frequency, resulting to a decreased average power consumption and decreased average
heat production. Conguration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
Turbo Mode [Enabled]
This item allows you to enable your core processor’s speed to run faster than the base
operating frequency when it is below operating power, current and temperature specication
limit. Conguration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
The following items appear only when you set the Turbo Mode to [Enabled].
Turbo Mode Parameters

The values range from 1 W to 4095 W.
Package Power Time Window [Auto]
Also known as Power Limit 1, this item allows you to maintain the time window for
Turbo Ratio over TDP (Thermal Design Power). Use the <+> or <‑> keys to adjust the
value. The values range from 1 to 127 in seconds.
