UEFI BIOS Setup

Introduction

The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the AMI UEFI BIOS Setup

program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic

system configuration and save these settings to NVRAM.

UEFI BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a

disk. This sys tem controls most of the input and output d evices s uch as keyboard,

mouse, serial ports and disk drives. BIOS activates at the firs t stage of the booting

process, lo ading and executing the op erating s ystem. Some add itional features, s uch

as virus and pass word protection or chips et fine-tuning options are also included in

UEFI BIOS.

The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in UEFI

BIOS Setup.

Limit CPUID Maximum

When the computer is booted up, the operating system executes the CPUID

instructio n to identify the processor and its c apabilities. Before it can do so, it must

first query the processor to find out the highest input value CPUID recognizes. This

determines the kind of basic information CPUID can provide the operating system.

Options: Disabled (Default) / Enabled

Hardware Prefetcher

The processor has a hardware prefetc her that automatically analyzes its requirements

and prefetches data and instructio ns from the memory into the Level 2 cache that are

likely to be required in the near future. This reduces the latency associated with

memory reads.

Optio ns: Enabled (Default) / Disabled

Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch

The processor has a hardware adjacent cache line prefetch mechanism that

automatically fetches an extra 64-byte cache line whenever the processor requests for

a 64-byte cac he line. This reduces cache latenc y by making the next cache line

immediately availab le if the processor requires it as well.
