Set the level of ECC protection. If User is selected, individual ECC options may be changed. Other options besides Disabled serve as presets. For super mode, all of memory is scrubbed every 8 hours.

Options: Disabled / Basic / Good / Super / Max User

ECC Error Checking

Enable the DRAM controller to read/write ECC check-bits on the DIMMs and it allows the north bridge to check and correct ECC errors on the DRAM bus during normal CPU or bus master read requests.

Options: Disabled / Enabled

ECC Error Log

Enable the MCA to log or report ECC errors on the DRAM bus.

NOTE: The MCA must still be programmed according to the desired MCE outcome.

Options: Disabled / Enabled

ChipKill

Enable 4-bit ECC mode (Chipkill) on dram controllers with all x4 ECC capable DIMMs.

Options: Disabled / Enabled

ECC Scrub Redirection

Enable the northbridge to force a write to DRAM with corrected data when a correctable error on the DRAM bus is detected during a normal CPU or bus master read request.

Options: Disabled / Enabled

DRAM ECC Scrub Control

Sets the rate of background scrubbing for DRAM.

Options: Disabled / 80ns / 160ns / 320ns / 640ns / 1.28us / 2.56us / 5.12us / 10.2us / 20.5us / 41us / 81.9us / 163.8us /327.7us / 655.4us / 1.31ms / 2.62ms / 5.24ms / 10.49ms / 20.97ms / 42ms / 84ms

DCache ECC Scrub Control

Sets the rate of background scrubbing for the DCache.

Options: Disabled / 80ns / 160ns / 320ns / 640ns / 1.28us / 2.56us / 5.12us / 10.2us / 20.5us / 41us / 81.9us / 163.8us /327.7us / 655.4us / 1.31ms / 2.62ms / 5.24ms / 10.49ms / 20.97ms / 42ms / 84ms

L2 ECC Scrub Control

Sets the rate of background scrubbing for the L2 cache.

Options: Disabled / 80ns / 160ns / 320ns / 640ns / 1.28us / 2.56us / 5.12us / 10.2us / 20.5us / 41us / 81.9us / 163.8us /327.7us / 655.4us / 1.31ms / 2.62ms / 5.24ms / 10.49ms / 20.97ms / 42ms / 84ms

ECC Multibit Error Detection

Enable multibit ECC error detection.

Options: Disabled / Enabled
