Frequency/Voltage Control
This item enables you to set the clock speed and system bus for your system.
The clock speed and system bus are determined by the kind of processor you
have installed in your system.

CPU Clock Ratio
Enables you to set the CPU clock. The CPU clock ratio times the CPU
Host/PCI Clock should equal the core speed of the installed processor.
Example:
CPU Clock Ratio
8
CPU Host/PCI Clock
x 100
Installed CPU clock speed
800 MHz
Auto Detect PCI Clk (Enabled)
When this item is enabled, BIOS will disable the clock signal of free DIMM and
PCI slots.
Spread Spectrum (Enabled)
If you enable spread spectrum, it can significantly reduce the EMI (Electro-
Magnetic Interference) generated by the system.
CPU Host/3V66/PCI Clock (Default)
Use the CPU Host Clock to set the frontside bus frequency for the installed
