3.1.7.1 CPU Clock Ratio

This field is used to select the CPU’s frequency ratio.

Important:

The frequency ratio of some processors may have been locked by the manufacturer. If you are using this kind of processor, setting an extended ratio for the processor will have no effect. The system will instead use its factory default ratio.

3.1.7.2 Auto Detect PCI/DIMM Clk

When enabled, the system will automatically send clock signals to existing PCI or DIMM devices.

3.1.7.3 Spread Spectrum

Leave this field in its default setting. Do not alter this setting unless advised by an engineer or technician.
