BIOS Setup

AGPMode

The item sets an appropriate mode for the installed AGP card. Setting options: 1x, 2x, 4x. Select 4x only if your AGP card supports it.

AGP Fast Write

This option enables or disables the AGP Fast Write feature. The Fast Write technology allows the CPU to write directly to the graphics card without passing anything through the system memory and improves the AGP 4X speed. Select Enabled only when the installed AGP card supports this function. Settings: Enabled, Disabled.

AGP Aperture Size

This setting controls just how much system RAM can be allocated to AGP for video purposes. The aperture is a portion of the PCI memory address range dedicated to graphics memory address space. Host cycles that hit the aperture range are forwarded to the AGP without any translation. The option allows the selection of an aperture size of 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, and 256 MB.

AGP Master 1 W/S Write

The field allows users to insert one wait state into the AGP write cycle. Settings: Enabled, Disabled.

AGP Master 1 W/S Read

The field allows users to insert one wait state into the AGP read cycle. Settings: Enabled, Disabled.
