REF to ACT / REF (Trfc) 

This field is only available when “DRAM Timing” is set to “Manual”. 

Settings: [12T, 13T, 14T, 15T] 

ACT(0) to ACT(1) (TRRD) 

This field is only available when “DRAM Timing” is set to “Manual”. 

Settings: [2T, 3T] 

DRAM Command Rate 

This field is for setting how fast the memory controller sends out commands.  

Lower setting equals faster command rate. 

Note: 

Some memory modules may not be able to handle lower settings. 

Settings: [2T Command, 1T Command] 

Spread Spectrum Range 

Settings: [+/- 0.1%, +/- 0.2%, +/- 0.3%, +/- 0.6%] 

Spread Spectrum 

When the mainboard's clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of 

the pulses creates EMI (Electromagnetic Interference).  The Spread Spectrum 

function  reduces  the  EMI  generated  by  modulating  the  pulses  so  that  the 

spikes of the pulses are reduced to flatter curves. 

Settings: [Disabled, Enabled]
