AES-NI
Select Enable to use the Intel Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) New Instruc-
tions (NI) to ensure data security. The options are Enable and Disable.
Intel Virtualization Technology
Select Enable to use Intel Virtualization Technology support for Direct I/O VT-d sup-
port by reporting the I/O device assignments to the VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor)
through the DMAR ACPI tables. This feature offers fully-protected I/O resource

 CPU P State Control (Available when Power Technology
is set to Custom)
EIST (P-States)
EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) allows the system to automatically
adjust the processor voltage and core frequency to reduce power consumption
and heat dissipation. The options are Disable and Enable.
Turbo Mode
Select Enabled to use the Turbo Mode to boost system performance. The options
are Enable and Disable.
P-State Coordination
This feature is used to change the P-state (Power-Performance State) coordi-
nation type. P-state is also known as "SpeedStep" for Intel processors. Select
HW_ALL to change the P-state coordination type for hardware components only.
Select SW_ALL to change the P-state coordination type for all software installed
in the system. Select SW_ANY to change the P-state coordination type for a soft-
