THRM Throttle Ratio

settings include 87.5%, 75.0%, 62.5%, 50%, 37.5%, 25% and 12.5%.
Intruder Sel
This option allows you to set the Intruder SEL setting to SCI or SMI. SCI
stands for System Control Interrupt. This is considered to be ACPI (Ad-
vanced Configuration and Power Interface) mode. The operating system
uses the SCI interrupt to process ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface) events signaled by GPEs (general Purpose Event), whether the
system is asleep or awake when the event occurs. In other words, the
wake event has the side effect of causing the system to wake up if it is
asleep, but its primary purpose is to generate an SCI that notifies the oper-
ating system that the event has occurred. SMI stands for System Manage-
ment Interrupt. This is considered to be Legacy mode. It is used to log
interrupt events to operating systems that do not support ACPI (Advanced
Configuration and Power Interface) and operating systems that do.
