► ASPM
Active State Power Management (ASPM) allows power to be incrementally reduced to indi-
vidual serial links in a PCI Express fabric as a link becomes less active. ASPM is defined in
the PCI Express base specification. Enables or disables ASPM for a Link, based on the overall
system power policy, the hardware capabilities of the Link, and the latency of the Link. Hard-
ware performs the actual power management operations of transitioning Links between Link
power states and resynchronizing Links. The configuration of the PCI Express implementation
on a system affects the amount of power savings that can actually be achieved.
This item is used to enable/disable this feature.
