Short Duration Package Power Limit [Auto]
Also known as Power Limit 2, this item allows you to provide rapid protection when
the package power exceeds the Power Limit 1. Use the <+> or <‑> keys to adjust the
value. The values range from 1 W to 4096 W.
CPU Integrated VR Current Limit [Auto]
Allows you to set a higher current limit to prevent frequency and power throttling when
overclocking. Use the <+> or <‑> keys to adjust the value. The values range from
0.125 to 1023.875 with a 0.125 interval.
CPU Internal Power Switching Frequency
Frequency Tuning Mode [Auto]
This item allows you to increase or decrease the switching frequency of the internal
regulator. Decrease the switching frequency to reduce the power consumption or
increase the switching frequency to enhance voltage stability. When this item is set to
[+] or [‑], the Frequency Tuning Offset appears that allows you to set its value from 0%
to 6%.
