The Clock Frequency is 66 by default. But you can change the
frequency in the BIOS Setup, so you can refer 3.3 - Chipset Features setup of
Chapter 3. That’ s mean Even if your Intel Pentium
®
CPU doesn't support an
external bus speed of 100MHz, you can still set your motherboard's external
bus speed to 100MHz.

Caution:
In

motherboards with onboard SDRAM,
it doesn’ t matter which DIMM socket you add memory
modules to first. If your motherboard doesn’ t have
onboard SDRAM, then DIMM3 should be filled before
DIMM1 or DIMM2. To see if your motherboard has
onboard SDRAM, simply check the model number
(Please refer Chapter1-1.2). If it doesn’ t contain a dash,
followed by an “R,” then your board doesn’ t contain
onboard SDRAM, and DIMM3 should be filled before
DIMM1 or DIMM2.
No jumpers need to be set to add DRAM modules; the BIOS will
automatically determine the type and size of the DRAM module that has been
added. Your motherboard contains three 168-pin DIMM sockets, marked
DIMM1, DIMM2 and DIMM3. The motherboard has a table-free, also
known as an auto-bank, feature that allows users to install DIMMs into any
bank. The three sockets permit system memory expansions of 8MB to
384MB or higher, and each bank provides a 64-bit wide data path. You can
install 100MHz SPD RAM or 66MHz SD RAM modules onto your
motherboard —which type to add depends, of course, on the clock speed of
your CPU.
If you want to install more memory and there are no sockets available,
you must remove some installed modules and replace them with upgrade
modules.
