CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]
Load-line is dened by AMD VRM spec and affects CPU voltage. The CPU working voltage
will decrease proportionally to CPU loading. Higher value gets a higher voltage and better
overclocking performance, but increases the CPU and VRM thermal. This item allows you
to enable or disable the CPU Load-Line Calibration function. Conguration options: [Auto]
[Disabled] [Enabled]
CPU/NB Load-Line Calibration [Auto]
This item allows you to enable or disable the CPU/NB Load-Line Calibration function.
Conguration options: [Auto] [Disabled] [Enabled]
