Configure the system profile

To view the System Profile Settings screen, power on the system, and press F2.
Click System Setup Main Menu > System BIOS > System Profile Settings.

Use the following table to configure the system profile:


Option	Description
System Profile	Sets the system profile. If you set the System Profile option to a mode other than Custom, the BIOS automatically sets the rest of the options. You can only change the rest of the options if the mode is set to Custom. This option is set to Performance Per Watt (DAPC) by default. Other options include Performance, Performance Per Watt (OS) and Custom. This option is set to Performance Per Watt (OS) by default. Other options include Performance and Custom. All the parameters on the system profile setting screen are available only when the System Profile option is set to Custom.
CPU Power Management	Sets the CPU power management. This option is set to System DBPM (DAPC) by default.
Memory Frequency	Sets the speed of the system memory. This option is set to Maximum Performance by default.
Turbo Boost	Enables (default) or disables the processor to operate in the turbo boost mode.
C1E	Enables (default) or disables the processor to switch to a minimum performance state when it is idle.
C States	Enables or disables the processor to operate in all available power states. C States allow the processor to enter lower power states when idle. When set to Enabled (default), which is operating system controlled, or when set to Autonomous, if hardware controlled is supported, the processor can operate in all available Power States to save power, but may increase memory latency and frequency jitter.
Memory Patrol Scrub	Sets the memory patrol scrub mode. This option is set to Standard by default.
Memory Refresh Rate	Sets the memory refresh rate, this option is set to 1x by default.
Uncore Frequency	Enables you to select the Uncore Frequency option. Dynamic mode enables the processor to optimize power resources across cores and uncores during runtime. The optimization of the uncore frequency to either save power or optimize performance is influenced by the setting of the Energy Efficiency Policy option.
Energy Efficient Policy	Enables you to select the Energy Efficient Policy option. The CPU uses the setting to manipulate the internal behavior of the processor and determines whether to target higher performance or better power savings. This option is set to Balanced Performance by default.
Monitor/Mwait	Enables the Monitor/Mwait instructions in the processor. This option is set to Enabled for all system profiles, except Custom by default. This option can be disabled only if the C States option in the Custom mode is set to disabled. When C States is set to Enabled in the Custom mode, changing the Monitor/Mwait setting does not impact the system power or performance.
Workload Profile	This option allows the user to specify the targeted workload of a server. It allows optimization of performance based on the workload type. This option is set to Not Configured by default.
CPU Interconnect Bus Link Power Management	Enables (default) or disables the CPU Interconnect Bus Link Power Management.
PCI ASPM L1 Link Power Management	Enables (default) or disables the PCI ASPM L1 Link Power Management.
