Super X11QPL User's Manual
Extended APIC (Extended Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller)
Based on the Intel Hyper-Threading technology, each logical processor (thread) is assigned
256 APIC IDs (APIDs) in 8-bit bandwidth. When this feature is set to Enable, the APIC ID
will be expanded from 8 bits to 16 bits to provide 512 APIDs to each thread to enhance CPU
performance. The options are Disable and Enable.
AES-NI
Select Enable to use the Intel Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) New Instructions (NI) to
ensure data security. The options are Enable and Disable.
Advanced Power Management Configuration
Power Technology
Select Energy Efficient to support power-saving mode. Select Custom to customize system
power settings. Select Disabled to disable power-saving settings. The options are Disable,
Energy Efficient, and Custom.
Power Performance Tuning (Available when "Power Technology" is set to Custom)
Select BIOS to allow the system BIOS to configure the Power-Performance Tuning Bias
setting. The options are BIOS Controls EPB and OS Controls EPB.
ENERGY_PERF_BIAS_CFG Mode (ENERGY PERFORMANCE BIAS
CONFIGURATION Mode) (Available when "Power Performance Tuning" is set to
BIOS Controls EPB)
Use this feature to set the processor power use policy to achieve the desired operation
settings for your machine by prioritizing system performance or energy savings. Select
Maximum Performance to maximize system performance (to its highest potential); however,
this may result in maximum power consumption as energy is needed to fuel the processor
frequency. The higher the performance is, the higher the power consumption will be.
Select Max Power Efficient to maximize power saving; however, system performance may
be substantially impacted because limited power use decreases the processor frequency.
The options are Max (Maximum) Performance, Performance, Balanced Performance,
Balanced Power, and Power.
CPU P State Control (Available when "Power Technology" is set to
Custom)
SpeedStep (PStates)
EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) allows the system to automatically adjust
processor voltage and core frequency in an effort to reduce power consumption and heat
dissipation. Please refer to Intel's website for detailed information. The options are Disable
and Enable.
