Spread Spectrum:
This field should always set to [Disabled] for better system stability.
CPU Host Frequency:
This shows current CPU host frequency of the installed motherboard.
CPU Ratio Selection:
CPU Ratio is the multiple that times the frontside bus frequency will equal
the core speed of the installed processor. Whether the option is open or locked is determined by the installed processor.
DRAM Frequency:
If [Auto] is selected, the motherboard will detect the memory module(s) inserted and assigns appropriate frequency automatically. You may also select other value as operating frequency: [100MHz (DDR 200)], [133MHz (DDR 266)], [166MHz (DDR 333)], [200MHz (DDR 400)].
