is selected, the motherboard will detect the memory module(s)

inserted and assigns appropriate frequency automatically. You may also

select other value as operating frequency: [133MHz (DDR 266)],

[166MHz (DDR 333)], [200MHz (DDR 400)].

Flexibility Option

The default value of this option is [Disabled]. It will allow better tolerance for

memory compatibility when it is set to [Enabled].

DRAM CAS# Latency

Use this item to adjust the means of memory accessing. Configuration

options: [Auto], [2.5], [2], and [3].

DRAM Command Rate

Use this to select among [2T Command] and [1T Command] for DRAM

Command Rate. The default value is [2T Command].

DRAM Bus Selection

The default value is [Auto], which will automatically select the proper ac-

cess mode for the system. You may select between [Single Channel] and

[Dual Channel] if you have properly set the dual channel memory

configuration.

Primary Graphics Adapter

This allows you to select [PCI] or [AGP] as the primary graphics adapter.

The default vaule is [PCI].

AGP Aperture Size

It refers to a section of the PCI memory address range used for graphics

memory. It is recommended to leave this field at the default value unless the

installed AGP card’s specifications requires other sizes.
