CHAPTER 3: OVERCLOCK QUICK GUIDE

3.1: T-POWER INTRODUCTION

Biostar T-Power is a whole new utility that is designed for
overclock users.

Based on many precise tests, Biostar Engineering Team (BET)
has developed this ultimate overclock engine to raise system
performance.
No matter whether under BIOS or Windows interface, T-Power
is able to present the best system state according to users’
overclock setting.

T-Power BIOS Features:

Overclocking Navigator Engine (O.N.E.)
CMOS Reloading Program (C.R.P.)
Memory Integration Test (M.I.T., under Overclock Navigator

Engine)
Integrated Flash Program (I.F.P.)
Smart Fan Function (under PC Health Status)
Self Recovery System (S.R.S)

T-Power Windows Feature:

Hardware Monitor
Overclock Engine
Smart Fan Function
Life Update

3.2: T-POWER BIOS FEATURE

A. Overclocking Navigator Engine (O.N.E.):

ONE provides two powerful overclocking engines: MOS and
AOS for both Elite and Casual overclockers.

Manual Overclock System (M.O.S.)

MOS is designed for experienced overclock users.
It allows users to customize personal overclock settings.

21

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

CPU Overclock Setting:

CPU Voltage:

This function will increase CPU stability when overclocking.
However, the CPU temperature will increase when CPU
voltage is increased.

Choices: T he range is from 0.8V to 1.7V.

CPU Frequency:

CPU Frequency is directly in proportion to system performance.
To maintain the system stability, CPU voltage needs to be
increased also when raising CPU frequency.

Choices: This range is from 200 to 450, with an interval of
1MHz.

Hammer CPU Multiplie r:

The MOS allows users to downgrade the CPU ratio when
overclocking.
Choices: The lower limit is x4 (800MHz). The upper limit is
decided by different CPU type. With an x1 (200MHz) interval.

Memory Overclock Setting:

Memory Voltage :

This function will increase memory stability when overclocking.
Choices: T he range is from 2.6V to 2.9V, with an interval of

0.1V.

Me mc lock Fre q ue ncy :

To get better system performance, sometimes downgrading the
memory frequency is necessary when CPU frequency is
adjusted over the upper limit.

Choices: 100, 133, 166, 200, 216, 233, 250 (MHz).

PCI-Express Overclock Setting:

PCIE Clock:

It helps to increase VGA card perfor mance.
Choices: T he range is from 100 to 145, with an interval of
1MHz.

Chipset Overclock Setting:

HT Fre que ncy:

We recommend users to set this item at “x4” when
overclocking.
Choices: x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, Auto.

Notice: According to tests that have been done; AMD Athlon XP 3000+
CPU is the best CPU type for overclock function.

22

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

Automatic Overclock System (A.O.S.)

For beginners in overclock field, BET had developed an easy,
fast, and powerful feature to increase the system performance,
named A.O.S.

Based on many tests and experiments, A.O.S. provides 3 ideal
overclock configurations that are able to raise the system
performance in a single step.

V6 Tech Engine:

This setting will raise about 10%~15% of whole system
performance.

V8 Tech Engine:

This setting will raise about 15%~25% of whole system
performance.

23

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

V12 Tech Engine:

This setting will raise about 25%~30% of whole system
performance.

Notices:

1. Not all types of AMD CPU perform above overclock setting ideally; the difference
will be based on the selected CPU model.

2. From BET experiments, the Atholon64 FX CPU is not suitable for this A.O.S.
feature.

B. CMOS Reloading Program (C.R.P.):

It allows users to save different CMOS settings into BIOS-ROM.
Users are able to reload any saved CMOS setting for customizing

system configurations.
Moreover, users are able to save an ideal overclock setting during

overclock operation.
There are 50 sets of record addresses in total, and users are able to

name the CMOS data according to personal preference.

24

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

C. Memory Integration Test (M.I.T.):

This function is under “Overclocking Navigator Engine” item.
MIT allows users to test memory compatibilities, and no extra

devices or software are needed.

Step 1:

The default setting under this item is “Disabled”; the condition
parameter should be changed to “Enable” to proceed this test.

↓

Step 2:

Save and Exit from CMOS setup and reboot the system to activate
this test.

Run this test for 5 minutes (minimum) to ensure the memory
stability.

Step 3:

When the process is done, change the setting back from “ Enable” to
“Disable” to complete the test.

25

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

D. Self Recovery System (S.R.S.):

This function can’t be seen under T-Power BIOS setup; and is
always on whenever the system starts up.

However, it can prevent system hang-up due to inappropriate
overclock actions.

When the system hangs up, S.R.S. will automatically log in the
default BIOS setting, and all overclock settings will be re-configured.

E. Integrated Flash Program (I.F.P.):

IFP is a safe and quick way to upgrade BIOS.

Step 1:

Go to Biostar website (http://www.biostar.com.tw) to download the
latest BIOS file. Then, save the file into a floppy disk.

Step 2:

Insert the floppy disk and reboot the system to get into CMOS
screen.

Step 3:

Select the item “Integrated Flash Program” to get the following
frame and choose the BIOS file downloaded in step 1.

Step 4:

Press “Enter” key to start BIOS file loading, and BIOS updating will
process automatically.

Step 5:

When the BIOS update is completed, press YES to the message
“Flash done, Reset system”, and the system will reboot
automatically to finish the process.

Advise:

You can update the system BIOS by simply pressing “Enter” key for
three times.

26

User’s Manual

Biostar T-Series TForce 6100-939

F. Smart Fan Function:

Smart Fan Function is under “PC Health Status”.
This is a brilliant feature to control CPU Temperature vs. Fan speed.
When enabling Smart Fan function, Fan speed is controlled

automatically by CPU temperature.
This function will protect CPU from overheat problem and maintain

the system temperature at a safe level.

↓

CPU Fan Off <℃>:

If the CPU temperature is lower than the set value, the CPU
fan will turn off. The range is from 0℃~127℃, with an interval

of 1℃.

Choices: 16℃ (default).

CPU Fan Start <℃>

The CPU fan starts to work when CPU temperature arrives to
this set value. The range is from 0℃~127℃, with an interval of

1℃.

Choices: 32℃ (default).

CPU Fan Full speed <℃ >

When CPU temperature arrives to the set value, the CPU fan
will work under Full Speed. The range is from 0℃~127℃, with

an interval of 1℃.
Choices: 52℃ (default).

Start PWM Value

When CPU temperature arrives to the set value, the CPU fan
will work under Smart Fan Function mode. The range is from
0~127, with an interval of 1.

Choices: 32 (default).

Slope PWM

Choices: 1 PWM Value/℃ (default), 2 PWM Value/℃, 4 PWM
Value/℃, 8 PWM Value/℃, 16 PWM Value/℃, 32 PWM
Value/℃, 64PWM Value/℃.

S1: CPU temperature is 60℃, and PWM value is 1 PWM /℃.

S2: CPU temperature is 60℃, and PWM value is 2 PWM /℃.

S3: CPU temperature is 60℃, and PWM value is 3 PWM /℃.

Increasing the value of slope PWM will raise the speed of CPU
fan.

As in above diagram, when the CPU temperature reaches 60℃,
the CPU fan speed for 3 PWM/℃ is higher than 1 PWM/℃
(S1<S2<S3).
