|
Tcc Activation Offset
| 0
| Offset from factory set Tcc activation temperature at which the Thermal Control Circuit must be activated. Tcc will be activated at: Tcc Activation Temp - Tcc Activation Offset. Tcc Activation Offset range is 0 to 63.
|
Power Limit 1 Override
| Disabled, Enabled
| Enable/disable Power Limit 1 override. If this option is disabled, BIOS will program the default values for Power Limit 1 and Power Limit 1 Time Window.
|
Power Limit 1
| 0
| Power Limit 1 in milliwatts. BIOS will round to the nearest 1/8 W when programming. 0 = no custom override. For 12.50 W, enter 12500. Overclocking SKU: Value must be between Max and Min Power Limits (specified by PACKAGE_POWER_SKU_MSR). Other SKUs: This value must be between Min Power Limit and TDP.
|
Power Limit 1 Time Window
| 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128
| Power Limit 1 Time Window value in seconds. The value may vary from 0 to 128. 0 = use default value (28 sec). Defines time window which TDP value should be maintained.
|
Power Limit 2 Override
| Disabled, Enabled
| Enable/disable Power Limit 2 override. If this option is disabled, BIOS will program the default values for Power Limit 2.
|
Power Limit 2
| 0
| Power Limit 2 value in milliwatts. BIOS will round to the nearest 1/8 W when programming. If the value is 0, BIOS will program this value as 1.25 TDP. For 12.50 W, enter 12500. Processor applies control policies so that the package power does not exceed this limit.
