Onboard switches

Onboard switches allow you to fine-tune performance when working on a bare or open-case
system. This is ideal for overclockers and gamers who continually change settings to enhance
system performance.
1. Turbo Key II switch
This switch allows you to auto-tune your CPU to enhance the system performance.
For ensuring the system performance, turn the switch setting to Enable when the system is
powered off.

If the steps above do not help, remove the onboard battery and move the jumper again
to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data. After clearing the CMOS, reinstall the battery.
You do not need to clear the RTC when the system hangs due to overclocking. For
system failure due to overclocking, use the C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall) feature.
Shut down and reboot the system so the BIOS can automatically reset parameter
settings to default values.
The O2LED2 LED near the Turbo Key II switch lights when the switch setting is turned
to Enable. Refer to section 2.9 Onboard LEDs for the exact location of the O2LED2
LED.
If you clear the CMOS or load the BIOS setup defaults, the related overclocking items
in the BIOS menu follow the current setting of the Turbo Key II switch.
If you change the switch setting to Enable under the OS environment, the Turbo Key II
function will be activated after the next system bootup.
You may use the TurboV Auto Tuning, overclock in the BIOS setup program, and
enable the Turbo Key II function at the same time. However, the system will use the
last setting you have made.
