TurboV Processing Unit (TPU)
ASUS TPU allows you to manually adjust the CPU frequency, CPU cache, core frequencies,
DRAM frequency, and related voltages for an enhanced system stability and a performance
boost. TPU also allows you to auto-tune the overclocking settings based on the CPU installed
in your motherboard.
Refer to the CPU documentation before adjusting CPU voltage settings. Setting a high
voltage may damage the CPU permanently and setting a low voltage may lead to an
unstable system.
For system stability, the TPU settings are not saved in the BIOS and are not loaded during
system bootup. Save your overclocking settings as a TPU profile and manually load this
profile after system bootup.
