Usually the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be powered only when users' PC need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the video process, and the CPU and PCIE frequency need to be boosted up to enhance the overall performance. Important Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user to make sure that your CPU / memory modules can afford to overclocking regularly first. If you find the PC appears to be unstable or reboot incidentally, it's better to dis able the Dy namic O v erc loc k ing or to lower the lev el of overclocking options. By the way, if you need to conduct overclocking manually, you also need to disable the Dynamic OverClocking first.

This field will appear after you installed the CPU which support EIST technology. Intel C-STATE tech C-state is a power management state that significantly reduces the power of the processor during idle. This field will appear after you installed the CPU which support c-state technology. Adjust CPU FSB Frequency (M Hz) This item allows you to set the CPU FSB frequency (in MHz).
