2) CPU External Frequency Selection (DIP_SW Switches 1–4)
This option tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU,
DRAM, and the PCI bus. This allows the selection of the CPU’s External
frequency (or BUS Clock). The BUS Clock multiplied by the Frequency
Multiple equals the CPU’s Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed).

WARNING! Set the SYSCLK frequency only to the recommended
settings. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies
are not guaranteed to be stable. Overclocking the processor is not
recommended. It may result in a slower speed.
