Current FSB Frequency

This field shows the detected FSB of the CPU.

Current DRAM Frequency

This field shows the detected frequency of the DRAM.

DRAM Clock

This field is used to select the clock speed of the DIMM.

By SPD The EEPROM on a DIMM has SPD (Serial Presence Detect) data structure that stores information about the module such as the memory type, memory size, memory speed, etc. When this option is selected, the system will run according to the information in the EEPROM.

100 MHz The memory clock speed will run at 200MHz.

133 MHz The memory clock speed will run at 266MHz.
