Hyper-threading
The Intel Hyper Threading Technology allows a single processor to execute two or more separate
threads concurrently. When hyper-threading is enabled, multi-threaded software applications can
execute their threads, thereby improving performance.
Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled.
Active Processor Cores
Allows you to determine whether to enable all CPU cores.
Options available: All/1/2/3. Default setting is All.
Limit CPUID Maximum
When enabled, the processor will limit the maximum COUID input values to 03h when queried, even if
the processor suppports a higher CPUID input value.
When disabled, the processor will return the actual maximum CPUID input value of the processor when
queried.
Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Disabled.
Execute Disable Bit
When enabled, the processor prevents the execution of code in data-only memory pages. This provides
some protection against buffer overflow attacks.
When disabled, the processor will not restrict code execution in any memory area. This makes the
processor more vulnerable to buffer overflow attacks.
Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled.
Intel Virtualization Technology
Select whether to enable the Intel Virtualization Technology function. VT allows a single platform to run
multiple operating systems in independent partitions.
Options available: Enabled/Disabled. Default setting is Enabled.
