Throttle Slow Clock Ratio
This option specifies the speed at which the system clock runs in
power saving states. The settings are expressed as a ratio between the
normal CPU clock speed and the CPU clock speed when the computer is in
the power-conserving state.
Thermal Slow Clock Ratio
When set to Monitor, then you can choose the throttle ratio. This
option is connected with the CPU Critical Temperature Option.
CPU Critical Temperature
This option is for setting the CPU temperature that would be critical
enough, so that it would use the Thermal Slow Clock Ratio to cool down the
CPU.
Power Button Function
During Suspend, if you push the switch once, the system goes into
suspend mode and if you push it more than 4 seconds, the system will be
turned off. During On/Off, the system will turn off once you push the
switch.
