P.A.T. Mode

Allows user to enable “Performance Acceleration Technology” in FSB800/ DDR400 mode, using PAT can employ a specially configured “shortcut” or “by pass” when accessing memory, slicing several clock cycles from the access times and reducing conventional latency factors. Preliminary tests have shown that system performance and efficiency can be increased about 3% - 5%.

If you want to set the “Turbo” or the “Ultra” options, please make sure your memory DIMMs can be overclock. Overclocking can damage the memory DIMMs or other sensitive components.

Options: Auto (default)Compatible (Slowest)PAT-DisabledTurboUltra (Fastest)
