Initate Graphic Adapter

This item shows the primary graphic adapter. The default value is [PCIE].

Internal Graphics Mode Select

If you select [Auto], the onboard VGA will be automatically disabled when

you install VGA card; the onboard VGA will be enabled without the installa-

tion of any add-on VGA card. If you select [Enabled, 8MB] or [Enabled,

1MB], the onboard VGA will be enabled.

DVMT Mode Select

Use this option to adjust DVMT mode. Configuration options: [Fixed Mode],

[DVMT Mode] and [Fixed+DVMT Mode]. The default value is [DVMT Mode].

DVMT (Dynamic Video Memory Technology) is an architecture that offers

breakthrough performance for the motherboard through efficient memory

utilization. In Fixed mode, a fixed-size fragment of the system memory is

allocated to the graphics core. In DVMT mode, the graphics driver allocates

memory as needed for running graphics applications and is cooperatively

using this memory with other system components. In Fixed+DVMT mode,

the graphics processor gets a fixed-size chunk of 64MB of memory and up

to 64MB of dynamically-allotted memory. This mode guarantees that at least

64MB of memory is available to the graphics core, with a possibility to

increase this amount to 128MB, if necessary.

DVMT/FIXED Memory

You are allowed to adjust the shared memory size in this item if you set

DVMT Mode Select as [DVMT Mode]. Configuration options: [64MB], [128MB]

and [Maximum DVMT].

OnBoard HD Audio

Select [Auto], [Enabled] or [Disabled] for the onboard HD Audio feature. If

you select [Auto], the onboard HD Audio will be disabled when PCI Sound

Card is plugged.

    Front Panel Control

Select [Auto], [Enabled] or [Disabled] for the onboard HD Audio Front Panel.

OnBoard LAN

This allows you to enable or disable the “OnBoard LAN” feature.

VCCM (DRAM) Voltage

Use this to select VCCM (DRAM) Voltage. Configuration options: [High],

[Middle], [Low], and [Auto]. The default value of this feature is [Auto].

VDDQ (1.25V) Voltage

Configuration options: [High], [Low] and [Auto]. The default value is [Auto].
