AI Overclocking [Auto]

Allows selection of CPU overclocking options to achieve desired CPU internal frequency. Select either one of the preset overclocking options. Configuration options: [Manual] [Auto] [Standard] [Overclock Profile]

Performance Mode [Auto]

Allows enhanced system performance. Setting to [Turbo] may cause the system to become unstable. If this happens, revert to the default setting [Auto]. Configuration options: [Auto] [Standard] [Turbo]

The following item appears only when the AI Overclocking item is set to [Manual].

CPU Frequency [XXX] (value is auto-detected)

Indicates the frequency sent by the clock generator to the system bus and PCI bus. The bus frequency (external frequency) multiplied by the bus multiple equals the CPU speed. The BIOS automatically detects the value of this item. The values range from 100 to 400. Refer to the following table for the correct Front Side Bus and CPU External Frequency settings. Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value.

FSB/CPU External Frequency Synchronization

 

Front Side Bus

CPU External Frequency

 

FSB 800

200 MHz

 

FSB 533

133 MHz

 

FSB 400

100 MHz

Selecting a very high CPU frequency may cause the system to become unstable! If this happens, revert to the default setting.

DRAM Frequency [Auto]

Allows you to set the DDR operating frequency.

Configuration options: [Auto 333] MHz] [400 MHz]

Selecting a DRAM frequency that is not supported by your DIMM module may cause the system to become unstable! If this happens, revert to the default setting. See page 1-16 for qualified DDR DIMMs.
