Understanding the Tuning Options
This section explains the tuning process for each of the tuning options.
Quick
The Quick tuning option tunes your system automatically and takes approximately
20 minutes.
The process involves adjusting (where applicable) the FSB, Memory bus, AGP bus,
PCI-E bus, GPU Core clock, and GPU Memory bus.
Two profiles are generated as follows:
•
Default.npe
- The current bus speeds are saved in this profile.
•
Bestsystem.npe
- nTune increases the bus speeds and runs the micro-benchmark
until the highest passing settings are reached. The resulting settings are saved in
this profile.
