Operating Frequency Setting [Standard]
When the motherboard is set to JumperFree™ mode, this field allows you
to configure the external frequency of your CPU. Select [User Define] if
you want to make changes to the CPU Frequency field. When [Standard]
is selected, CPU (external) Frequency will be fixed at 100MHz. Configu-
ration options: [Standard] [User Define]
DRAM to CPU Frequency Ratio
This field determines whether the memory clock frequency is set to be in
synchronous or asynchronous mode with respect to the CPU Frequency.
This must be set in conjunction with CPU (external) Frequency to match
the speed of your SDRAM. Configuration options: [3:3] [4:3]
CPU Frequency
(when Operating Frequency Setting is set to [User Define])
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 (the CPU’s internal frequency). Note that selecting a
frequency higher than what the CPU manufacturer recom-
mends may cause the system to hang or crash. See System
Hangup later in this section.
