Auto Detect DIMM/PCI Clk
When enabled, the system will automatically detect and send clock
frequency to the memory and PCI bus.
Spread Spectrum
Leave this field in its default setting. Do not alter this setting unless
advised by an engineer or technician.
CPU Clock Ratio
This field is used to select the CPU’s frequency ratio.
Important:
•
The frequency ratio of some processors may have been
locked by the manufacturer. If you are using this kind of
processor, setting an extended ratio for the processor will
have no effect. The system will instead use its factor y
default ratio.
•
The frequency ratio of processors greater than 8x has been
locked by the manufacturer and will no longer have the
flexibility of using extended ratios. Therefore, the system will
use the processor’s factory default ratio.
