an item Ratio CMOS Setting appears to allow you changing the ratio value
of this motherboard. If it shows “Locked”, then the item Ratio CMOS Set-
ting will be hidden. If you use the ratio value to time the CPU frequency, it will
be equal to the core speed of the installed processor.
Ratio Actual Value
This is a read-only item, which displays the ratio actual value of this
