CPU Frequency Multiple
(when CPU Speed is set to [Manual])
This field is for unlocked processors only. If your processor frequency
multiple is locked, you cannot access this field. This field sets the
frequency multiple between the CPU’s
internal frequency (CPU speed)
and external frequency.
CPU/PCI Frequency (MHz)
This feature tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the system
bus and PCI bus. The bus frequency (external frequency) multiplied by the
bus multiple equals the CPU speed.
CPU Speed [Manual]
This parameter allows you select the CPU internal frequency. You can
select either one of the preset speeds, [2200 MHz] or [2933 MHz], or
select [Manual] if you wish to adjust the setting of the next item, CPU
Frequency Multiple. Configuration options: [Manual] [2200 MHz]
[2933 MHz]
CAUTION
Be careful when setting the CPU internal frequency. Selecting a
frequency higher than what the CPU manufacturer recommends may
cause the system to hang or crash!
