CPU Frequency
This parameter displays your CPU speed and bus frequency.
Selecting this option displays the following screen:
CPU Frequency
Bus Frequency................ 100 MHz
CPU Multiple................. [4]
Processor Speed.............. xxx MHz
Bus Frequency
The bus frequency refers to the speed by which data is transferred
between internal computer components and the CPU or the main
memory of the CPU. A fast bus allows data to be transferred faster,
which makes applications run faster.
CPU Multiple
This parameter sets the Core/bus ratio of your system. The clock
speed of the bus does not necessarily equal the CPU
(core). The
bus clock speed is often slower than the CPU clock speed
.
