Performance Mode
This item allows you to control the MAT (memory acceleration technology)
function of CPU. MAT is MSI
TM
’s exclusive technology, specializing in opti-
mizing the data transfer rate among CPU, north bridge chip and memory, and
also in procuring better memory performance and bandwidth up to 10%. Select-
ing Fast will enable MAT. Please be noted that not every memory is compatible
with MAT. If the system fail to reboot for four times, the BIOS will be restored
to the Default value (Normal). Setting options: Normal, Fast, Turbo (MAT),
Ultra Turbo (MAT).
MSI Reminds You...
1. Even though MAT is easy to use, it doesn't mean there's no
risk at all. We recommend you to check if your memory is
able to bear MAT setting or not before deciding to always
use it. If your system will be unstable or reboot incidentally
after switching to Fast, please switch back to Normal.
Moreover, if you want to conduct FSB overclocking, you
should set MAT as Normal.
