[. . . ] When this item is set to 'Disable Link, the system will operate power save feature for those unpopulated PCI Express links. Options available: Keep Link ON/ Disable. Default setting is Keep Link ON. BIOS Setup - 40 - 2-2-2 Runtime Error Logging Runtime Error Logging Enable/Disable Runtime error logging support. Default setting is Disabled. - 41 - BIOS Setup 2-2-3 CPU Configuration BIOS Setup - 42 - CPU Information Socket 0 CPU Information CPU Type/ Signature / Microcode Patch / Max CPU Speed / Min CPU Speed / Processor Cores / Intel HT Technology / Intel VT-x Technology Intel HT Technology / Intel VT-x Technology Displays the technical specifications for the installed processor. Displays the support information for the installed processor. Cache Information L1 Data Cache / L1 Code Cache / L2 Cache / L3 Cache CPU Speed / 64-bit Hyper Threading Displays the technical specifications for the installed processor. 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. Default setting is Enabled. Active Processor Cores (Note) Limit CPUID Maximum Displays the technical specifications for the installed processor. Allows you to determine whether to enable all CPU cores. 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. When enabled, the processor prevents the execution of code in data-only memory pages. Default setting is HW_ALL. Turbo Mode P-STATE Coordination - 45 - BIOS Setup CPU C3/C6 Report (Note) Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3/C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The C3/C6 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. Configure state for the C-State package limit. Options available: C0/C1/C6/C7/No Limit. Energy Performance Bias is Intel CPU function. The larger value in MSR_ENERGY_PERFORMANCE_BIAS register, CPU will save more power but lose more performance. Note: This register will be changed by OS too if OS support it like Windows 2008 or newer Linux. Options available: Performance : Write value 0 into MSR_ENERGY_PERFORMANCE_BIAS Balanced Performance: Write value 7 into MSR_ENERGY_PERFORMANCE_BIAS Balanced Energy: Write value 11 into MSR_ENERGY_PERFORMANCE_BIAS Energy Efficient: Write value 15 into MSR_ENERGY_PERFORMANCE_BIAS Default setting is Balance Performance. Package C State Limit Energy Performance (Note) This item is present only if you install a CPU that supports this feature.
