5) CPU External Frequency Setting (DSW)
This option tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU, SDRAM,
and the chipset. This allows the selection of the CPU’s External frequency. The
CPU External Frequency multiplied by the Frequency Multiple equals the CPU’s
Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed). The CPU is running at the same
speed as the SDRAM.
NOTE: To use this feature, CPU Frequency Selection in BIOS setup must be
set to [By Jumper] (see 4.4.2 Advanced Chipset Setup).
