Asus H170M-E D3 Manual page 56

CPU Graphics Switching Frequency [Auto]
This item affects the GT transient response speed and the component thermal production.
Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when you set the GT VRM Switching Frequency to
[Manual].
Fixed CPU Graphics Switching Frequency (KHz) [250]
This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 250KHz to
500KHz with a 50KHz interval.
CPU Graphics Power Duty Control [T.Probe]
The GT power duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component's
phase.
[T. Probe] Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
CPU Graphics Power Phase Control [Auto]
This item allows you to set the power phase control of GT. Configuration options: [Auto]
[Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase Response]
DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Extreme] or [Power Phase
Response]. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when you set the CPU Power Phase Control to [Power
Phase Response].
Power Phase Response [Fast]
This item allows you to set a faster phase response for the CPU to increase system
performance or to slower phase response to decrease DRAM power efficiency.
Configuration options: [Ultra Fast] [Fast] [Medium] [Regular]
2.5.10 Internal CPU Power Management
The subitems in this menu allow you to set the CPU ratio and their features.
Intel SpeedStep
®
This item allows the operating system to dynamically adjust the processor voltage and cores
frequency, resulting to a decreased average power consumption and decreased average
heat production. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
Turbo Mode [Enabled]
This item allows you to enable your core processor's speed to run faster than the base
operating frequency when it is below operating power, current and temperature specification
limit. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
2-22
