This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology, which means during

overclocking, FSB enjoys better margin due to fixed AGP / PCI / PCIE bus. You may

set “CPU Host Frequency” option of BIOS setup to [Auto], which will show you

the actual CPU host frequency in the following item. Therefore, CPU FSB is untied

during overclocking, but AGP / PCI / PCIE bus is in the fixed mode so that FSB can

operate under a more stable overclocking environment.

If you want to use “VIA RAID Tool Information” in Windows

environment,

please install SATA drivers from the Support CD again so that “VIA RAID

Tool Information” will be installed to your system as well.
