1.1.3 Intelligence

Over Voltage

The Over Voltage function allows you to manually adjust to a higher

core voltage that is supplied to the CPU. Although this function is

supported, we do not recommend that you use a higher voltage

because unstable current may be supplied to the system board

causing damage. Refer to Selecting the CPU Core Voltage in

chapter 2 for more information.

CPU Overclocking

The CPU Overclocking function allows you to adjust the CPUs bus

clock in 1MHz increment. However, overclocking may result to the

processors or systems instability and are not guaranteed to provide

better system performance. Refer to CPU Clock in the Frequency/

Voltage Control section in chapter 3 for more information.

Power Off mode to wake-up/power-on to respond to calls coming

through an internal or external modem. Refer to Wake-On-Ring

Connector in chapter 2 and RI Resume in the Power Management

Setup section in chapter 3 for more information.

Important:

If you are using a modem add-in card, the 5VSB power source

of your power supply must support a minimum of

≥

720mA.

Wake-On-LAN

The Wake-On-LAN function allows the network to remotely wake

up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC.Your LAN card must support

the remote wakeup function. Refer to Wake-On-LAN Connector in

chapter 2 and RI Resume in the Power Management Setup section

in chapter 3 for more information.

Important:

The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support a

minimum of

≥

720mA.
