(Note) This item is present only when you install a CPU that supports this feature. For more information about
Intel® CPUs' unique features, please visit Intel's website.
&Hyper-Threading Technology (Note)
Allows you to determine whether to enable multi-threading technology when using an Intel® CPU that
supports this function. This feature only works for operating systems that support multi-processor mode.

&CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) (Note)
Enables or disables Intel® CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) function, a CPU power-saving function in system
halt state. When enabled, the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to
decrease power consumption. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethissetting.(Default:Auto)
&C3 State Support (Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C3 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 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&C6/C7 State Support (Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6/C7 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 C6/C7 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C3. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&C8 State Support (Note)
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C8 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
C8 state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C6/C7. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongure
this setting. (Default: Auto)
&Package C State Limit (Note)
Allows you to specify the C-state limit for the processor. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethis
setting. (Default: Auto)
&CPU Thermal Monitor (Note)
Enables or disables Intel® Thermal Monitor function, a CPU overheating protection function. When enabled,
the CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced when the CPU is overheated. Auto lets the BIOS
automaticallycongurethissetting.(Default:Auto)
&CPU EIST Function (Note)
Enables or disables Enhanced Intel® Speed Step Technology (EIST). Depending on CPU loading, Intel
EIST technology can dynamically and effectively lower the CPU voltage and core frequency to decrease
average power consumption and heat production. AutoletstheBIOSautomaticallycongurethissetting.
(Default: Auto)
&Voltage Optimization
Allows you to determine whether to enable voltage optimization to reduce power consumption. (Default:
Enabled)
&RSR
Allows you to determine whether to automatically lower the CPU turbo ratio if the CPU voltage/temperature
is too high. (Default: Enabled)
&Hardware Prefetcher
Allows you to determine whether to enable hardware prefetcher to prefetch data and instructions from the
memory into the cache. (Default: Enabled)
&Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch
Allows you to determine whether to enable the adjacent cache line prefetch mechanism that lets the
processor retrieve the requested cache line as well as the subsequent cache line. (Default: Enabled)
