1. BIOS is @ 0602
2. Turned off Fast Boot in BIOS Boot Config, because devices can go stupid
3. Set CPU Load-Line Calibration to Ultra High in BIOS > DIGI+ Power Control
4. Set CPU Current Capability to 180%, let that freak eat what it wants
5. Set CPU Power Duty Control to Extreme, because i don't care thermal balance (subjective)
6. I was better setting Current Inrush Inertia to Disabled, as i don't like what the help says about what it does, on the right side of screen :S
7. Turned off Fast Startup for Win8.1 in Power Settings, because sometimes the saved image is stupidly very different from the last session and Win can go into automatic repair
Additionally i have EIST Enabled, HPET Disabled and CPU C States on Auto, because i like it that way.
Grrrrr.
Cheers 😉
