AGP & P2P Bridge Control

Press <Enter> and the following sub-menu appears:

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 32MB, 64MB, 128MB and 256MB.

AGPMode

This item sets an appropriate mode for the installed AGP card. Setting options: 1X, 2X, 4X, 8X. Select 8X only if your AGP card supports it.

AGP Driving Control

This item is used to adjust the AGP driving force. Selecting Manual allows you to select an AGP driving force in AGP Driving Value. It is strongly recommended to select Auto to avoid any system error caused.

AGP Driving Value

This item specifies an AGP driving force.

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.

DBI Output for AGP Trans.

DBI means Dynamic Bus Inversion and this item is used in AGP 8x mode only. Driven by the source to indicate whether the corresponding data bit group needs to be inverted on the receiving end. Used to limit the number of simultaneously switching outputs to 8 for each 16-pin group. It is not available if your AGP card is not 8x-supported.
