AIW / HPW Performance Tuning

Modified on Thu, 8 Oct at 8:30 AM

PROBLEM:

HPW and AIW Workstations are configured for broad range of use cases. User wants max performance enabled.


SOLUTION:

Recommended BIOS settings, CPU dependent.

Chipset

 |-AMD CBS

 |-DF Common Options

 | |-ACPI

 | | |-ACPI SRAT L3 Cache As NUMA Domain = Disabled

 |-UMC Common Options

 | |-DDR Security

 | | |-TSME = Disabled

 |-NBIO Common Options

 |-SMU Common Options

 |-TDP Control = Manual

 | |-TDP = 300 (see CPU chart)

 |-PPT Control = Manual

 | |-PPT = 300  (see CPU chart)

 |-Determinism Control = Manual

 | |-Determinism Enable = Power

 |-APBDIS = 1

 |-DfPstate = 0

 |-Power Profile Selection = Maximum IO Performance

 |-DF Cstates = Disabled

 |-CPPC = Enabled

 |-HSMP Support = Enabled
