Pretty simple. The computer advances ignition timing until it " hears " knock.
Then it retards the timing in small increments until knock is gone.
I.e., you cheap out on octane rating, you will end up with less timing advance & slightly less torque/hp/snap, balls, whatever you want to call it.
The difference would be hard to notice for some people.
