u ADVANCED DRAM CONTROL 1 / 2 SETTINGS
The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic
random access memory (DRAM). The default timings have
been carefully chosen and should only be altered if data is
being lost. Such a scenario might well occur if your system
had mixed speed DRAM chips installed so that greater delays
may be required to preserve the integrity of the data held in
the slower memory chips.
