Setting BIOS Function
SDRAM Burst Length
This setting allows you to set the size of Burst-Length for DRAM. Bursting
feature is a technique that DRAM itself predicts the address of the next
memory location to be accessed after the first address is accessed. To use
the feature, you need to define the burst length, which is the actual length
of burst plus the starting address and allows internal address counter to
properly generate the next memory location. The bigger the size, the
faster the DRAM performance.
Settings:
