Abstract
In the described embodiments, a computing device executes firmware to perform a startup initialization operation, wherein performing the startup initialization operation comprises setting an operating state of a memory in the computing device to a default low performance memory operating state. After completing the startup initialization operation, the computing device executes an operating system, wherein executing the operating system comprises performing a memory test to determine a high performance memory operating state. The computing device then sets one or more memory configuration values based on the high performance memory operating state, the one or more memory configuration values controlling the operation of the memory.
