Auto Detect DIMM/PCI Clk

Common Options : Enabled, Disabled

Quick Review

This BIOS feature determines whether the motherboard should actively reduce EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and reduce power consumption by turning off unoccupied or inactive PCI and memory slots.

When enabled, the motherboard will query the PCI and memory (DIMM) slots when it boots up, and automatically turn off clock signals to unoccupied slots. It will also turn off clock signals to occupied PCI and memory slots, but only when there is no activity.

When disabled, the motherboard will not turn off clock signals to any PCI or memory (DIMM) slots, even if they are unoccupied or inactive.

It is recommended that you enable this feature to save power and reduce EMI.
