Energy Processing Unit (EPU)
EPU is a real-time system power-saving chip that automatically detects the current
system load and intelligently moderates power usage. It offers a total system-wide energy
optimization, reduces fan noise, and extends the lifespan of your hardware components.
Using EPU
 When you enable Configured Max CPU Power for advanced energy saving
condition, the CPU frequency may display 800 MHz in the Windows
®
OS information
of your computer. However, the true CPU frequency varies depending on the
wattage that you manually set. You can adjust the CPU wattage from the lowest
base on your preferred default value.
 Configured Max CPU Power may decrease the total power delivery to the CPU and
affects the CPU performance under system heavy load. To restore your system to its
default settings, reboot your computer.
