I was reading the forums over at gskill, about the ram I have. And they have a guide to set the ram up. My question is, is there a reason they have certain stuff in the bios recommended to be disabled?
Here is what they posted.
F3-16000CL9D-4GBTD + Gigabyte P55-UD3R BIOS settings <hr style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" size="1"> <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> These settings will work for other DDR3-2000 memory packages as well.

What benefit is having stuff like CPU Clock Ratio from 21 to 16, Turbo Boost, EIST, Virtualization, etc disabled?
