` PPMConguration
& EIST
Enables or disables Enhanced Intel
®
Speed Step Technology (EIST). Depending on CPU loading, Intel
EIST technology can dynamically and effectively lower the CPU voltage and core frequency to decrease
average power consumption and heat production. (Default: Enabled)
& CPU C state Report
Enables or disables support for CPU's power-saving functions. (Default: Enabled)
& Enhanced C state
Enables or disables Intel
®
CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) function, a CPU power-saving function in system halt
state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease
power consumption. ThisitemiscongurableonlywhenCPU C state Report is enabled. (Default: Enabled)
& Max CPU C-state
Allows you to determine the maximum C state that the CPU will support. Options include: C7, C6, C1
(default).ThisitemiscongurableonlywhenCPU C state Report is enabled.
` ThermalConguration
& DTS
Enables or disables the CPU overheating protection function. (Default: Disabled)
& Critical Trip Point
Allows you to set the CPU temperature threshold. If the CPU temperature reaches this value, the operating
systemwillshutdownthesystem.ThisitemiscongurableonlywhenDTS is enabled. (Default: 100 C)
& Passive Trip Point
Allows you to set the CPU temperature threshold. If the CPU temperature reaches this value, the CPU
frequencywillbeautomaticallyreduced.ThisitemiscongurableonlywhenDTS is enabled. (Default: 85 C)
` IDEConguration
& Serial-ATA (SATA)
Enables or disables the integrated SATA controllers. (Default: Enabled)
